Messenger Group Chat #195

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Hey Guys,
I don't know if you guys know Messenger Group Chat.
http://www.messengergroupchat.com/

It works like this:

Everyone adds a specific mail and we all chat.

In Galaxium, all people on the group got the group name. So Is kinda
difficult to see who is who!
Is there a chance to fix this?

Ty

I Using the latest Galaxium on Hardy ;)

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "all people on the group got the 
group
name. So is kinda difficult to see who is who!"

what does this mean? Can you re-phrase?

Ok,
1. I go to: http://www.messengergroupchat.com/
2. I create a Test Group: mgroup66852@hotmail.com (You can join too).
3. Me and my friends, we add the group to MSN contacts.

In Windows Live Messenger it looks like this:

But, in Galaxium it shows like this (Example image):

"all people on the group show the group
name instead of their nicks. So is kinda difficult to see who is who!"

Man, i got a bad english! :( Sry, I learn it on Schwarzenegger movies :(

I looked a little into how this works, it uses an activity to present a group 
chat
without an actual multi-contact switchboard like standard group chats.

In short, it's dependent on issue 23, so I'm stealing this issue :P

Hopefully they don't use an ActiveX control like most of the other activities 
do,
because I can't think of a 'clean' way to support that... We can probably make 
use of
WINE to run the ActiveX controls but we'll need to see if it's possible to get 
it to
interact with webkit (which isn't as far fetched as it sounds: google for khtml
reaktivate).

The "group chat" issue is the main issue to me..

i have been always talking in a chat group, so I have to switch to Windows Live

I hope Galaxium will be the one (first) to fix it cause i love Galaxium.

Paul, I was looking into msn message headers and I think it's not dependant of 
issue 23.

Here's a set of normal headers for text messages:
=====start======
MSG id@passport Username 158
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
X-MMS-IM-Format: FN=Sans; EF=; CO=00007F; PF=0;RL=0
======end=======
In first line we can get the Username and it's OK for regular users, including 
group
messages.

Now the headers of a message sent by an user of the group:
=====start======
MSG mgroupxxxxx@hotmail.com Username(Groupname) 164
P4-Context: FriendlyUsername
X-MMS-IM-Format: FN=Microsoft%20Sans%20Serif; EF=; CO=ff0000; CS=0; PF=22
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
MIME-Version: 1.0
======end=======
Again, in first line, we have the passport and Username, also the Groupname.
But in second line, we have the P4-Context, the "friendly username".
As far as I read and tested, P4-Context is there just to allow a member to 
change his
nickname for a single message and here's the trick of messenger group chat.
Maybe Galaxium can check for the presence of this header in every message 
received,
replacing the Username by P4-Context.
