Live Messenger alternative?

<< < (2/5) > >>

Kintaro:
I don't have one (iSight camera), and iChat doesn't support MSN. Sorry sir, but you have failed.

Also, I don't have Mac OS X either, double fail.

Refalm:
emesene is pretty good, I like it that they use GTK+ instead of that horrid Tk Framework that aMSN is using.

But apparantly, it's the only one with webcam support.

Kintaro:
I just noticed aMSN is open source? Why the hell haven't the other OSS ones ripped out its video support?

Refalm:
Probably NIH-syndrome, or it was written in the Tk Framework (which is horrid).

Kintaro:
Probably the case, getting a Tk component to work in Pidgin (C++) would be pretty painful for the developers. However they could just see how MSN webcam shit works from its algorithm or something.
