    @grimmy I think that Pidgin/libpurple are generally very appreciated (at least by me), we even have had an exchange about that in the past where I said "Everybody will be happy to see libpurple and so Pidgin back in the game."

    I'm not talking for the "greater XMPP community", maybe some have been aggressive I don't know the details. In any case, I feel sad that FOSS projects are fighting each other (I see that a lot, specially in IM).

    @grimmy I personally am keeping an eye on libpurple evolution as I would really love to see an XMPP gateway using it if we can do deep integration of other protocols, as we have talked in the aforementioned thread.

    Anyway, I hope that you won't hold it against wider XMPP community, some people are annoying, other are greats (I met great people through time, some became friends), and keep up the good work.
