           Summary: Make it clear why the user can't subscribe to services
                    on many Jabber servers
           Product: kopete
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: Stefan.Borggraefe gmx de


Version:           Current 0.12 SVN build (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 4.0.4 20060507 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.3-3) 
OS:                Linux

Steps to reproduce:
1. Connect your Jabber account.
2. Enter the "Jabber Service Management" dialog.
3. Try some different servers.

Result:
With many jabber servers the "Register" and "Browse" buttons are always grayed 
out, so you can't subscribe to any service on these servers (jabber.ccc.de, 
amessage.de). With some other servers this works fine (jabber.com, jabber.org) 
and you can subscribe to at least some of the offered services. It is unclear 
why you can't subscribe to some services and the user might start searching for 
a mistake on his side.

Expected result:
Provide some kind of explanation or hint why the buttons are grayed out when 
selecting certain services. Here is one possible solution:

Also gray out all listed services that can't be subscribed to. Add a sentence 
below the list stating "The grayed out services are not compatible with 
kopete." or whatever the reason might be.
