emesene alpha

emesene 1.0 is almost feature complete so if you want to be alpha tester just run
the following command:

svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/emesene/trunk/emesene emesene1
cd emesene1
python Controller.py

turn on the debug on the preferences menu and start to use it, if you find a bug send me a mail with the exception in the console and the description of the bug to my mail (what were you doing, how to make it happen etc).

if you had used emesene 1.0 before erase the ~/.config/emesene1.0 directory

Update 03/12/06 8:11 : before submit a bug do "svn up" on your emesene directory, some fixes and new features added.

Plugins!

PluginManager and PluginManagerDialog created, emesene can be
extended with plugins!
a plugin as example has been written if you want to check how to do
your own plugin.

New Theme (and more)

i have changed the default theme, here are some screenshots.





other stuff:

• now you can send messages to a contact in a conversation before he join the conversation, when he join the messages are sent.
• add/remove/rename group implemented
• block/unblock user implemented
• the soap requests are made in a thread so they dont freeze the GUI
• a stub of a plugin system started.

Encodings fixed!

i win!

i hope not offending somebody with what i have wroted :D

new features

Here is a screenshot of new features, mainly conversation log.

the conversations are allmost finished, you can chat, do multiconversations, invite people to chat, log conversations, format messages, see time stamp on messages,
send nudges, smilies etc.

The only feature missing is tabbed chat.

call for official logo/theme

i want a official logo/theme for emesene, since i dont think that i have good taste
i want you to design one, the winner will be anounced here with the logo and of course
the logo will be used fot the default theme of emesene and will be in the credits.

the conditions are:
* SVG format (if you can)
* GPL like license
* the logo must be a logo not a word.

thats all, you have to send me the logos to my mail

keep coding

copy and paste the svn comment:

text format in both ways (inverse color bug fixed),
style while typing (delay aplying the style fixed),
multiconversation in both ways (invite and be invited), a lot of problems fixed there,
invite dialog created (still some bugs there),
optional timestamps to the messages,
modified way of showing the contacts (we need bigger status icons until
we show the display picture).

i wait comments..

getting closer

a screenshot to see how the project goes:


a mention to emiliano schreiner who was the first to chat with me using emesene 1.0, to dx who filled a lot off GUI advises and to tuza who help me with the multiconveration.

Feature request opened

since somebody asked i officially open the feature request season.

if you think something is missing on emesene just request it, there are 3 ways:

• creating a ticket in the tracker
  
• creating a post in the forum
• commenting here

the features will be discussed and in 2 weeks when i have more time i will start adding them.
The features will be discussed so if you do a request, return later to see the responses.

not dead (yet :P)

just to probe that emesene is not dead see this:

emesene 1.0 alpha, a complete rewrite, now with MSNP13 support, a new library of our own.

new things supported (by now, new things to come):

• Personal Message
• Space indicator

i expect your comments...
