So everyone's up to date with the current situation: - Ziemin started a very cool project doing OTR as a middleware layer between KTp and Telepathy CMs, proxying the channel traffic - We took him on for GSOC - Upstream finally started doing OTR themselves
It's a bit annoying, as we can now continue our own thing, or build upon upstream's work, and contribute to that. The danger of upstream is they have a habit of getting easily distracted and never merging/releasing anything. It's happened before on a very nearly completely implementation. However, this time things are looking promising. 1.0 was delayed to get this in. We're currently evaluating quite how we proceed, but the current plan seems to be to build on top of upstream's OTR and 'just' add the relevant UI layers in KTp. If so there will be some work both in tp-logger and possibly helping with gabble to do as part of the GSOC. We're having weekly meetings in [email protected]. Typically Monday afternoon. You're welcome to join. Zeimin's tasks for next week: 1) publish blog post 2) compile the new gabble and try to set up an OTR chat by poking at it via qdbus 3) compare the list of features we have to what the current gabble branch can do. _______________________________________________ KDE-Telepathy mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-telepathy
