This is a protocol specific message. What protocol was it under? Subject: Re: "This user has me on his contact list" is inaccurate

Oh, right, that User Info part only appears on MSN.

Version: unknown (using KDE 3.1.94 (CVS >= 20031206), compiled sources) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.2 OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.19 I cringe when I see "his" for a female contact. I understand this is not primarily a Kopete issue and would probably require work in kab and i18n as well. I agree that in (KDE) documentation "he" might be assumed, but many IM protocols support meta information such as gender for their contacts. Be gender neutral ("you are on this user's contact list"), or be correct.
