Going on...

Ahoj Planet!

Good news is that the patches I presented in the last post have been verified and merged with a few changes:

The remove contact dialog looks like this now with the name of the group displayed-

Only one of Join and Leave chat menu-items gets displayed in the top of the 'Conversation' menu-

(and with these we move one step towards having ability to close a chat window without leaving a chat.)

Besides these, other works submitted for review are:

• Show typing icon against composing members of a private MUC or a chat-room

• With my patches, the search-bar will now hide itself when an action is selected from the contact-roster after search is performed. This will make it look smarter and will improve its promptness for the next search. See for yourself in action! (Bug 643183)
• Submitted a patch to close Bug 698530 - adding contact to group does not cause them to leave Ungrouped until Empathy restart.
  
  There's so much to be done. Stay tuned for more polishing!

Back to shooting bugs!

I had been underground as I was not well. I was too tired and was advised rest from work.

When I came back I picked up my pending branch on telepathy-networking in gnome-chess since work begun should not be left incomplete. I realized that my branch had diverged from gnome-chess master to quite some extent :( so I decided to fix and complete that at any next stretch of peaceful time such as the GNOME India hackfest being planned. :)

Meanwhile, I'll continue with bug-fixing and triaging, since the tiniest things are also important.
I have proposed fixes for:

• Bug 643755 - Create Join Chat and Leave chat menu items for the conversation menu in MUCs (multi-user-chats)
• Bug 698840 - "top contacts" who are offline are incorrectly showing in Empathy's contact list
• Bug 585440 - Deleting a contact in multiple groups (in Empathy's remove contact dialog)
                         
  

  

  
  

  I am currently looking into Bug 703487 - Show typing icon against composing members of a MUC, which was lost in obsoleting old code and needs to be redone using the new API.
