[Gossip-dev] Using xchat-gnome's UI for gossip chatrooms

[Xavier Claessens]

Hello,

A friend of mine, Guillaume, who is working on xchat-gnome wants to port
it to telepathy. This means rewrite almost everything in x-g. Instead of
writing a completely new telepathy client only for chatrooms I had the
idea of doing it in gossip.

The idea is basically to use x-g's UI for chatrooms in gossip. I'm
writing here to get ideas and opinions, is that a cool thing to do ?

What about having a x-g's like window separate of private chats for all
chatrooms? Or is it better to embed a x-g like window in a tab on the
same window than private chats like actual chatrooms are?

Martyn told me chat stuff have to be re-factored so maybe it's time to
discuss a bit about a better implementation and UI ?

Xavier.
