Description _ 2005-01-02 00:23:22 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Compiler:          gcc 3.4.3 
OS:                Linux

An away system with per-protocol settings would be great. Let me explain this: for example a user goes to play a game. He doesn't want to set himself to "Away" on MSN, because "Busy" is more appropriate. But, as he also has an AIM account and is lazy he does not want to set himself away for every account.
The solution: an away system where you can set your status (e.g. "Away", "Busy", "On The Phone") for every protocol (and permanently save the message/settings). There would also be a checkbox for an autoresponder (for e.g. MSN which does not have one built in) - which would be doing nothing for protocols where you can only set yourself away (such as AIM) and you have to set an away message.
This would also require some extra DCOP functions.

This will be done when a solution for Bug 57297 will be implemented.
There are already some unfinisdhed work on CVS. but i don't know if it will be finished for KDE 3.4
