Also, while Pidgin configuration seems more advanced, it's still very far from the true reality. With portable computers (including phones) people can use multiple networks within a same day. The best solution for configuration would be to have at the same time global configuration and per-connection configuration. Those would be auto-selected base on current network profile.<BR>

That said, the mechanic involved is way too complex to be implemented by all the software separably. Better have a system wide configuration panel that does it right (and try not to make the basic case complex) compared having tones of different UI all over the place.<BR>

This being said, before you can really consider having proxy support, we need to stop copy pasting protocol and configuration and use a single, tested and debugged implementation that, hopefully, will also be the most complete. Base on that, I encourage anybody like Sébastien to take a peace and write it.<BR>

Cheer,<BR>
