Eugen, I also would like to thank you VERY MUCH for working on this issue. My vague recollection is that the "other information" was provided through a sign-in procedure separate from setting up an account.

It is on my TODO list, I plan to work on it in a few days. Hi, Let's dig this problem further. I see several solutions: - show the name and the SIP address, either in the same column, or in two columns; I can do that fairly easily. - show other information, but what? Here are the other existent fields: - e-mail addresses: should not be shown, in my opinion - online status: should probably be shown - ekiga version: useful to have, at least for developers :o) - is other information useful? Where do comment, url and location come from? They are not given when subscribing for an account, and they do not exist on Ekiga software either. Note that there exist two names: the one given in Ekiga, and the one given when subscribing to an acount. The first one is shown when calling. I think the second one is shown when searching white pages on ekiga.netserver. -- Eugen _______________________________________________ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
