I think this makes most sense when we have a unified contact list, something
we'll
eventually get around to.

Well, to be honest. The design ideas of Galaxium are to GET AWAY from the
current
designs of MSN programs in linux. Re-duplicating this is defintiely not our
goal.
Perhaps there is a better way to do this. Keeping in mind the current design of
the
contact list.
I'm still a bit torn about the idea of a unified contact list. mostly because it
changes galaxium's interface incredibly, it would basically be like... a
rewrite.

current contact list design makes no sense, because protocols are the only
things
that can differ people.
that difference should be invisible in multi-im's like galaxium, pidgin and
miranda.

I think the best way to do this is to have an 'All Sessions' entry in the combo
at
the bottom, as you have suggested yourself (Phil) in the past. That could be
done
best within Client.Gtk using a custom version of the contact tree.
If you'd prefer than I'll look at doing that once I finish the MSN features for
0.8.

Jakub, I dissagree that the current design "makes no sense".
Just because all other IM's are clones of eachother, doesn't mean there isn't
more
than one way to skin a cat.
I'm sure we will figure out our OWN way of doing things. But I guarantee you
this, we
are not re-writing Pidgin :P

Well, in fact. We have started working on something that will actually suit
both facets.
Watch out, its going to rock :P

I wanted to say "at last", but this is less apropriate.
"Yippie" is more appropriate :> .

The list now should be able to render and show any contact list that supports
it.
This now allows us to render a extra tree for All Sessions. There are issues
with
customization and sizing right now which need to be fixed.
Also, the "all sessions" profile panel at the top needs to be implemented.
EVERYONE NOTE: This tree is PURELY cosmetic right now. It does not implement ANY
functionality, wether it be chatting, menus, or anything. Please only report on
things we say should work :P

last time I tried "all sessions" I saw offline contacts (while were disabled in
menu)
and no beautiful blue icons...

I've created the general menus, and re-connected the contact list events.
contact
list still doesn't generate correctly. Added option to always go to all
sessions when
connecting to a new account.
