Completely guessing here: since Skype will still maintain MSN connectivity, and since Skype already supported Facebook messaging -- my guess with XMPP as well, I'm guessing the MSN XMPP bridge was created specififically to avoid implementing the full MSNP protocol on Skype. As I said, I'm guessing all this, but this would mean MSN XMPP would last a few more months/years. -- Pedro _______________________________________________ telepathy mailing list telepathy@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/telepathy
