It still doesn't stop the fact that PyYIMt 1) lacks usable documentation, 2) doesn't do anything PyMSNt can't do better, 3) crashes and leaks memory like only Windows running GAIM and Netscape 4 could ever hope for before PyYIM, and 4) like all the other transports, only connects to obsolete networks replaced by Jabber anyway... -- Paul Johnson Email and IM (XMPP & Google Talk): [EMAIL PROTECTED] -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Q: Should we start spreadxmpp.org ? spreadjabber.org ?

Well, I have 3GB of RAM installed and a couple gigs of swap, and I've actually run out of address space running PyYIMt before. > > 4) like all the other transports, only connects to obsolete networks > > replaced by Jabber anyway... > > Q: Should we start spreadxmpp.org ? spreadjabber.org ?

I rarely have problems with PyYIMt and PyIRCt. The only problems I've run into is that they tend to go byebye on me if the server goes away.
