Version: 0.9.2 (using KDE KDE 3.3.2) Installed from: Unlisted Binary Package Compiler: gcc (GCC) 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-6ubuntu1) OS: Linux Dear Developers, Feature described in the "short description" would be useful for people who do not want advertise their client and kernel version. Yes, I know this is a kind of "security by obscurity", but it can make automated scanning more difficult. Gaim already has a similar feature. Beyond that, it is easy to implement (imho): - add a checkbox somewhere on the gui - make this three lines optional in protocols/jabber/jabberaccount.cpp based on the state of the checkbox: jabberClient->setClientName ("Kopete"); jabberClient->setClientVersion kapp->aboutData()->version ()); jabberClient->setOSName (QString ("%1 %2").arg(utsBuf.sysname, 1).arg (utsBuf.release, 2)); - after this, it will use default values, defined in the constructor of Client class from libiris (protocols/jabber/libiris/iris/xmpp-im/client.cpp), and jabber:iq:version won't be so informative. Anyway, keep up good work, Buga
