Im so happy to see a serious XMPP IM project.
We have to unify the IM protocol to replace the pstn network asap. The only way to do that is to focus only on xmpp. Do not waste any time in other propietary network protocol nor propietary operating system Mac/Win

If you succeed, we will succeed !

Thanks a lot! Best wishes!

this.AddWidget(myButton);

Unfortunately MonoDevelor fails to compile it complaining that the window does not have a method called “AddWidget”. My Qyoto version is 4.4, installed from the built-in packages in Ubuntu 9.04. My Mono version is 2.4.2.3, installed from this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~directhex/+archive/monoxide. I’d like to ask you what the problem be. Thank you for your time and good luck with “Synapse”.

Ever since I left Miranda behind I was looking for an application to drop-in replace MirandaIM. Stumbled upon a lot of IMs, I think I don’t lie if I say I tried em all.

But this project, wow!

Cpl o days of age, and I know it will advance to my absolute favorite as soon as development catches up a little.

Keep goin, very nice piece of code this is, for sure!

The only thing that still keeps me stuck to crapgin is ICQ.

Strange, but it seems like in Germany, and exclusively in Germany, everybody uses ICQ. I only got 2 contacts on msn, and like 300 or so on ICQ.

However, I’m really looking forward to anything to come.

Dead on!

I’d have proposed to contribute german translation, but I guess I’m a little late… Actually I prefer English anyway as it’s more common for applications/tasks in general.

However, thx, thX, tHX, THX and keep going.

Thanks!

dbeta: There was a (hilarious) bug causing Synapse to quit when all windows were closed, this has now been fixed.

Mimzy: Yes! You’ll be able to chat with AIM friends soon. As far as the “Find Me Elsewhere” thing on this blog, it’s actually part of this theme. http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2008/09/08/agregado-a-free-wordpress-theme/ I hope someone can rip it out into a plugin that’ll work with other themes too.

Børge: Identi.ca/Laconica has been a frequently requested feature. I recommend subscribing to the bug to keep up to date http://firerabbit.lighthouseapp.com/projects/23238/tickets/58-support-identica

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

identi.ca has a Twitter compatible API. That means that all you have to do is to change the URL of the Twitter API to the identi.ca API URL, and all your existing code for Twitter will work with identi.ca! You can read more about that here: http://laconi.ca/trac/wiki/TwitterCompatibleAPI For inspiration you can find a list of clients and services that works with identi.ca (and some of which can post to Twitter and identi.ca simultaneously) at http://laconi.ca/trac/wiki/Apps. Synapse will of course be added to this list if you decide to support identi.ca.

Laconica, at http://laconi.ca/, is the code that identi.ca runs, and anyone can install it on their own server, like Leo Laporte’s very popular podcasting network TWiT has done with http://army.twit.tv/. The only thing you need to do to add support for any installation of Laconica, instead of just identi.ca, is to let the user herself tell Synapse the URL of the API. For an example just look at how http://twitterfeed.com does it.

Thanks!

Also, I was wondering about the sidebar of this blog, the “Find me Elsewhere” column. Is that a plugin/widget or did you write it yourself? I really want something like that for my own blog…

I personally wasn’t impressed with QGtkStyle’s buggy imitation, and it seems like the main synapse window has a mind of it’s own on which theme is better.

So I’m sticking to gtk+ stuff. Although the intent is appreciated :)
