I think that's not entirely accurate. I think Pidgin could support logging into Google Talk with oauth, in which case the user would enter their authentication credentials into their browser (including a one-time password, for people with 2-factor authentication enabled). In this case users would not need to generate an application specific password. I don't know how other people feel about this. I'm mildly in favor of it. The code is mildly Google specific... but I think our XMPP PRPL already has other Google-specific code. And the oauth model is becoming increasingly more common. https://developers.google.com/talk/jep_extensions/oauth _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
