Hello from an XMPP newcomer:
I've noticed that when a user logs in, the PyMSNt gateway queries the
server for the user's vCard and, if a nickname is set in that vCard,
passes that nickname on to the legacy IM network. Likewise, when the
user broadcasts a presence stanza with a <status> element, PyMSNt passes
this custom status on to the legacy network. However, it is sometimes
desirable to set one's nickname and custom status on the legacy network
independently. Is such a feature beyond the intended scope of XMPP
gateways, or is this an area that has simply not been considered and
discussed? I've verified that XEP-0100 doesn't cover this topic. I'd
appreciate any thoughts or clarifications.
Thanks,
Matt
