I agree, the new release of Kopete seems great. I think its safe to finally say 'bye bye gaim' ;-).

Don't forget the inexistence of visible/invisible lists.
I have to create a new msn for home, then added people I like to see me online, and just removed the old msn from home (just for work now).
Voice in msn is sadly adscent too.
Kopete is still behind sim-icq in my opnion, but sim just was discontinued :(

Well, Gaim has it now, can't Kopete use that? I know it's built differently, but the idea is probably the same..

sim-icq, also a GPL software can do that also.
But you know, the truth is that most open source projects never trade source or help each other :-P

Code usually isn't easily transplantable from one project to another. Assuming the file transfer protocol is documented somewhere ( likely since gaim and sim/icq can both work it out ), someone will still need to code support around kopete's internal structure.

not the biggest.

I could count all occurences when i wanted to send someone a file via any kind of IM on the fingers of my left hand, and still have enough left to play a quint on the piano (not that i can play the piano at all but you get my point).

but what I really lack in kopete a way to block people from spamming me.

as it is now, any unknown icq user can send me spam, without even being on my contact list (because that would need my auth and joe j spammer doesnt get my auth. no way in hell. never ever.), and whats even worse, the kopete guys chose to ignore the issues for reasons of "we wont implement ignore for protocols that don't do it natively". Hell, they dont even recognize (or maybe they ignore) the duplicates of the bug report asking for that feature...
