Hi, today I have first tested Openfire 3.3 with its Gateway plugin. It's quite straight-forward: install Openfire, log in to the web interface, install the Gateway plugin, enable the networks you like and you're done from the administrator's POV. No downloading and manual installing of other software and their dependencies (recent Python, Twisted), no separate system services and interconnection with ports and passwords, configuration and other things. I could connect to ICQ and Yahoo without any 3rd party software.
So, now there's PyICQ-t and others which were required to use ICQ connections in previous versions of Openfire (Wildfire). What has happened to those? Do I still need them? Are they just bundled in the new Gateway plugin? (Plugins use Java, Py* uses Python, so I guess it's some kind of re-write from scratch...) What's the functional difference between Openfire's Gateway plugin and the other Py* transports? (I've found a video about that improved roster integration that sounds reasonable to me, is there anything else?) Can anybody please enlighten me? The docs I found on the Openfire site weren't too clear for me. -- Yves Goergen "LonelyPixel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Visit my web laboratory at http://beta.unclassified.de _______________________________________________ py-transports mailing list py-transports@blathersource.org http://lists.modevia.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/py-transports
