I added the "No group" to group all the users that are not in a group (duh!).
I added the option to group all the offline users inside a special group.
Also added Ctrl+Esc and Ctrl+Tab shortcuts on the conversation window.
thanks to cando who started contributing code.
Now start testing and contributing!

there is something that i have always wanted to see on emesene or even on wlm. A label function. I find it particular useful when having to ask something about a class i am in. instead of scrolling all the way down the contact list trying to think whether if that guy has the same class i do, i could select the math label and show all of my contacts i have on that class. a contact should be able to have several labels and it would be more useful than separating them in different groups. something like gmail's labels.
i would like to code it myself but i'm such a noob. maybe you like my idea :P
Well you can have one contact in several groups. And "labeling" is not realy a good idea, since it would add an additional contact list option that's not compatible with the WLM specification of MS. I think what could be a good idea, and would help in Diego's case is modifing the searchbar, to recognize not just contacts, but group names too.
So if Diego adds a few ppl to the "Math" group, and he would usually use an ungrouped view, but as soon as he starts to type in math in to the searchbar, he'll only see those contacts who are in the math group. (Provided that none of his contacts are called Math XD)
the protocol doesn't support a thing like tags, so it would be only local and not easy to understand for people coming from other clients.
Also you can add a contact to multiple groups if that is what you want to do.
about searching for a group when using "sort by status" that can't be done because the groups aren't there on the contact list and we use gtk treeview search and filter facilities for that.
that's what i thought. i'll try creating multiple groups :-)
