perhaps one of the steps i should take, thanks John.

Or actually, just couch running alone is bad enough. outch! actually, i don't quite care which app does the job. there's so much code out there, we might aswell run gecko in a gtk window with a couple of buttons around it and AJAX for interactivity, as far as gwibber's current functionality is concerned. all i want is to take my desktop identity with me, no matter what machine i desire to move to, by connecting one single service.. contacts managed, video calls enabled, drag and dropping stuff around. websites in a browser can do it, my phone does it, the Ubuntu desktop should be able to do it, too. let's see if with the right help, one can draw up a concept worth our while. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
