I added support for receiving bold, italic, and underline text in yahoo today. It was pretty easy. The next step is to now implement the sending of it, which will probably be a tad harder, especially considering how brain-dead some clients tend to be when handling rich text. Read More

I've been thinking for quite some time on how to install multiple distributions onto a single hard disk. At the moment, my sole reason for doing this would be to troubleshoot bugs on the various distributions since some of them seem to be distribution specific, and I'm sure I'll find other uses later.

It was about a year ago that I got my CVS account after posting a patch to the kopete-devel fixing some issue in the Yahoo plugin. I don't even remember what it was. Read More

hmmm, ok, so much for not working on kopete for awhile. I was going to try to take a break, but I can't! It's like freaking quicksand, I keep getting sucked back in, so I fixed a few bugs, and now I'm better. Read More

hmmm, not much to report really (watch, I'll end up writing a huge blog ;-) ). I've lost interest in hacking on anything network related at the moment, so I haven't been working on Kopete much lately, although I did start rewriting some OSCAR code to remove the old Kit api that's been polluting it and generally causing bugs with the contact list handling. Read More

I just looked at the mound of stuff I have in my local CVS tree, in addition to the bits and pieces that I have scattered around the KDE CVS tree and I started thinking, "Where did all these projects come from? Read More

I took a semi-break over the last couple of weeks and went hardcore back into coding on Sunday. Cleaned up Kopete's filetransfer API a bit (ok, removed one whole function), fixed a Gadu bug, and then added mail notifications to Yahoo. Read More

Recently, I've decided to find something else in the KDE project that interests me, familiarize myself with its inner workings, and start hacking on it. I've come up with a couple of things, mostly KIO, and KOffice (KWord, KSpread, and Kexi to be exact). Read More

so, yup, i started ripping out parts of kopete's oscar plugin last night. The first thing to go was the old Kit API and so the AIMBuddy and AIMGroup classes are gone. Read More

I've started working on a (currently small) app that will parse the ChangeLog files created by cvs2cl and display them in a KListView and allow me to edit them and produce a new ChangeLog file from that. Read More

So, yup, this is my blog entry, and I have no idea what to write about. Maybe it's because I'm not doing anything, or maybe it's because I'm doing too much, or. Read More

It's snuck up on me. It's been growing item by item until it can go unnoticed no longer. Yup, my TODO list has become so long, I can no longer ignore it. Read More

Ok, now that i've thought of a snappy title for my blog to get people to read it, I'll actually write something here I've had an interesting weekend. I was supposed to release Kopete 0. Read More

Well, I got the kopete yahoo plugin to work again. Yahoo decided to change their authentication methods and so that left all of us in the dark. From the looks of it, I tihink they're using an SHA style hash now, but I'm not all that sure since I don't know enough about the protocol internals as I should. Read More

Wow, it's amazing what a little venting can do for your motivation!. I ranted about how certain people were pissing me off and that I just didn't have motivation to work on Kopete a whole lot anymore. Read More

Here's the mandanatory blurb about having not posted a blog in awhile: "I haven't posted anything here in awhile, sorry bout that" And now on to the bulk of the content. Read More

I've been porting the Kopete config dialogs for the plugins for the last couple of days. Man, I knew that I knew very little of what the KDE framework offers, but I had no clue. Read More

I've been converting Kopete's Oscar protocol to KExtendedSocket over the past week or two. Needless to say, it hasn't been without it's headaches, but I have finally conquered it!!! The testing that I've done so far seems to indicate that it still works the way it did before the conversion, although now I can't test it to make sure an issue I had with disconnecting is gone because of the KUtils stuff. Read More

it's been awhile since I've written one of these. Mostly because I've been working on porting Kopete's oscar protocol to KExtendedSocket. It's used QSocket which is very limited in certain things. Read More

I just pushed Kopete 0.7.1 out the door. YAY! :) This was definately not the way I had scheduled it, thanks to bug:62210. Kopete 0.7.0 would not have gone out if I had known about that bug. Read More

YAY! One last exam (at 6pm today) and then I'm done with stupid summer classes!! After that exam, the weekend starts, along with my two week break from school before fall classes start. Read More

ok, yup, i'm a dumbass, i posted two of the same blog, but i'm going back and editing this one so :P Well, today has turned out to be a weird day so far. Read More

There's a little bit more to see here now. I wanna write a blog, but I just don't have motivation at the moment since i have an exam in about 3 hours (must study! Read More

How annoying. I fixed the yahoo bad account data log in bug that Bille (Will Stephenson) pointed out to me, but I can't commit for 0.7 because it has string changes. Read More

I'm trying to get kopete's .pot file updated since it's three days old. I was under the impression that they were generated automagically by one of the kde servers, but I was wrong. Read More

Well, I still have no time to hack on KDE, (well, Kopete to be more specific) but that's ok since I just made a nice breakthrough with my algorithms project that's due on Monday night (6pm). Read More

Why is it that university professors always pile crap loads of work on at the end of the term? sigh So yeah, I got lots of homework and projects, and no time to hack. Read More
