always visible notifications (for incoming group chat messages?)
by Kristian Rink 30 Nov '17

Folks; we're using XMPP and various clients (Windows, Linux, Android, iOS) in a mid-sized company for internal communication and have one use case so far left unresolved: We want to establish certain channels to send out messages to each and every user and make sure they are seen *under all circumstances*. Best solution for this would be to, like, pop up a dialog or message window centered on the screen, focussed and in front of all windows so to make sure the incoming message doesn't go unnoticed. Can I achieve something like this using gajim? Right now, I am using group chats and notify_on_all_muc_messages = true, but that seems to result just in the gajim system tray icon blinking whenever a message arrives - which is not what I need for my desktop users. Do you think the setup I outlined can in any way be done using gajim? Any hints on how to do that if so? TIA and all the best, Kristian

Message Styling
by Sam Whited 29 Nov '17

Hi all, I'm trying to solicit some feedback for XEP-0393: Message Styling [1]. I'm aware that Gajim already has its own simple styling language similar (but not compatible) with the one defined in styling, but I was wondering if the developers thought that styling met the needs of Gajim and its users, even if you don't plan on implementing it in the future? Is there anything critical to Gajims use case that you think is missing from styling? If not, is styling something you'd consider implementing if it meant better compatibility with existing clients? Does it interfere with your existing styling language in any way? Any other feedback you can provide? Thanks in advance, Sam [1]: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0393.html

Issue #8749
by Annika Sommer 12 Nov '17

12 Nov '17

Hello! We are Sergii and Annika, two computer science students from the "Freie Universität Berlin". We are currently doing a course named "software engineering processes" and in this context we are studying open source projects and the processes they follow. We would like to contribute to the Gajim project by resolving one of the current issues. We would like to implement the issue #8749 "Misleading error message joining a room", posted here https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/issues/8749. Our plan: In the method handle_event_gc_presence(self, obj) located in gajim/gui_interface_in.py, there is no distinction between the errors 'remote-server-not-found' and 'item-not-found'. We want to deliver the correct error message to the user by adding a separate error case and message for 'remote-server-not-found', which doesn't exist at the moment. We would appreciate any feedback. Best wishes, Sergii and Annika
