Thanks for your effort.

Let us know how the upstream integration is going on.

If you have a chance, you might want to take a look at the bugs listed
here[0], and see if your rewrite fixes any of them (other than the
ones you have already commented on).

[0] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=pidgin-otr

Aside from the ones I've already commented on, no, my work doesn't affect any of these other bugs.

Just for reference, the upstream bug report has been re-opened since I started working on the issue:

http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/11623

3 out of 4 of my patches have already been integrated into pidgin upstream, and I expect the last will be merged soon.

I haven't yet gotten any more feedback from the OTR upstream. Interestingly enough, I see that ArchLinux is already distributing my new plugin code.

http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pu/purple-otr/

I would have preferred that my code be merged into the OTR Project's code first; I didn't mean to fork their stuff permanently.

I've rewritten the pidgin-otr-3.2.0 plugin to use the libpurple API, so a
single plugin works for both pidgin and finch. Details are here

http://lists.cypherpunks.ca/pipermail/otr-dev/2011-December/001237.html

and the source code is here

https://gitorious.org/purple-otr

I expect that with some user and developer feedback we'll find a way forward
to bring this support into the official OTR sources down the road.

I use this with pidgin/finch 2.10.1 with 4 additional patches, as detailed
in the links above.
