Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 449190
Feature Request: Support for MSN group conversations.
Last modified: 2008-06-28 15:25:26 EDT
Description of problem: CenterIM does not support MSN group conversations in any usable way. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.22.4 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Invite a CenterIM client user to a group conversation from a client that supports group conversations 2. Message from the CenterIM client 3. Message from other members Actual results: Multiple chat windows open in CenterIM and the other users' clients. Mass confusion ensues. Expected results: A single chat window opens, preferably with a list of names on the right-hand side, that includes the members of the group chat. Additional info: The ability to create group conversations and invite users to an existing conversation would be nice, but that could be implemented later on. I understand this is probably a fairly large task, and I must apologize that I have no programming abilities apart from a little HTML and VB :P. I just want to throw my voice out there on this. This appears to be the only feature missing that I really would like. If anything could be done to add/improve support for this, I would be grateful. Thank you for anything you can do. -Gideon Mayhak
Thanks for the suggestion; Fedora is probably not the right place to do such a change; please consider reporting this at: http://bugzilla.centerim.org/ For group conversation, IRC offers that capability and is generally preferred over MSN, due to Internet standard compilance, public specification, availability of free implemenations and widespread use.
