FWIW the Trillian IMPP would be fine to develop as a prpl for libpurple. It mirrors XMPP in a lot of ways. Unfortunately a few things are missing from their IMPP docs but I've been in contact with the Trillian devs on multiple occasions and they've always been very helpful with any questions I had about the docs... Although now they're at a point of "well you're the only one who cares about the docs so we probably won't bother updating them":D
I'd still love to have a go at writing a prpl for IMPP but it's waaaaay down the list on my TODO, but if anyone else wanted to take a crack at it, I'd be more than happy to guide/mentor them *hint hint* Cheers, Eion On 7/09/2016 15:03, <pid...@alexoren.com> wrote: > On 06-09-2016 04:04, Shlomi Fish wrote: > >> I disagree.
