Version: 0.7.90cvs >= 20030812 (using KDE 3.1.3) Installed from: Gentoo Compiler: gcc version 3.2.3 20030422 (Gentoo Linux 1.4 3.2.3-r2, propolice) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-gentoo-r6 Add support for file transfers in Jabber. It seems that gabber already has this support...?
File transfers are not really standardized yet, so most of the other clients can only talk to other users using the same client. I think the Jabber Council has recently voted on a standard, however, we depend on our backend library to support this. The file transfer code is already there, it just needs a bit of fixing up. Once that is done, they'll get included into the interface as well.
Has any progress been done on this or the last comment is still the current Jabber Kopete File Transfer state?
The next synch with libxmpp will most likely include filetransfer code. Since Justin is still working on it, I don't know when he'll get the code stable enough. I expect this to be by the end of the year - since we can't add this feature before KDE 3.2, the timeline should be realistic.

Our backend library still does not support filetransfers but will hopefully do so soon. Depending on which standards the other clients follow in terms of filetransfer, Kopete will be able to communicate with them or not. In the long run, all clients will obey to whatever the Jabber Foundation regards as the "official" protocol(s).

Shold it hereby work ind the Kopete version shipping with KDE 3.2.2?
no. KDE 3.3 Alpha 1 should have it though.
Yes, Alpha 1 has it.
