yes, unfortunatly sneakin hasn't really had time to migrate his
changes from arch to darcs, which means that non of the mainline
patches are making it to the muc build.

If I have time I'll look at starting to port sneakin's changes from
arch to darcs.

I vote for not changing the current behavior.
The reson for proposing the change is somewhat strange. No client seem
to read the Nickname from the v-card. Ok, I can understand this, since
it's a temp JEP. On the other hand, I would not want the client to read
the nickname since I favor to name my contacts according to their real
names. MSN messenger is a strange phenomenon, and did until recently (?)
not support status messages but only nicknames. So the users abused the
nickname to write status messages and even love letters. Now days MSN
messenger supports status messages while the users do not seem to use
it. If the user does not write a status message, then we cannot show a
status message.
What Andreas is saying is that we know that most messenger users put the
status in the nickname, so why not show that. Well, it's not a status
message.
And the clients, well, we can't just fool the client in to displaying
(hopefully) the right message can we? The client should read the
nickname and present it as a nickname. And if no one is interested in
implementing it, we need to push for a permanent JEP on this, not trying
to do a hack from the wrong side. As for PyMSN to have a non-standard
behavior would not be to attack the problem, but the consequence, once
again.
So, make sure that the nickname will be/becomes a standard, and then
implement a choice in the client as to what to show in the roster.

I really can't care less what all your opinions are on this matter, but
you don't quote me correctly:

- Of course aliases override nicknames of msn users, hell, those
  nicknames are annoying.
- of course an msn nickname must clearly be presented as one, that's why
  I called for the following format for a status message for msn
  contacts:

"[Personal message, if any]
Nickname: [nickname, if any - else msn address]"

The first line of the status message can then be displayed in a client
in the roster view, so that you quickly see every user's status. The
second line can then be consulted if you happen to be interested in
their ugly msn nickname.

Even if Jabber has a really impressive JEP for nicknames, I'll still
stick to my aliases, and I'd only desire a feature to see it in a
tooltip, just like I'd like this for MSN contacts.

Gosh, can we now stop about this issue? It's only about some silly
nicknames! Nikos is right to say we should take it to the standards-jig
list if we are discussing the nickname feature of Jabber.

What I'd prefer is to talk about MSN getting some new features, which
are currently *missing* , instead of just represented incorrectly
according to Jabber's JEPs etc. . . . .

this means, one has to write a mail to JIG list where Jabber Protocol
is being discussed

Steve:  If you pop over to my builds site, you might see a psi-muc
build hiding in the list...

I'm not sure if I exactly had time to migrate the patches, but it
still happened.   I really should be working on the Release TODO list,
and not stuff that is going to change lots anyways :-)

As already expressed, I'm not so fond of Psi. Could you take this whole
Psi discussion OFF LIST?

Ok folk, this is getting ridiculous.  I see no objection to Norman  
posting about building a recent Psi.  There was an interest in a  
newer version to test with.  Not that I use Psi under Windows, but I  
appreciate Norman trying to provide something for folk to test with.   
If you don't care about Psi, there's a nifty delete function in your  
E-Mail client.  Use it.

I don't understand why this nicknames discussion generated so much  
negative discussion.  Seemed like a fairly reasonable thing to talk  
about myself.  Looks like it was agreed that it's time to bring this  
up with the JIG, so go do it and stop picking fights here.

In general, can we please try to be a little more civil?  Everyone's  
entitled to their opinions.  There is no need for this "your opinion  
is wrong" crap.

Thanks.

Your moderator,
Daniel
