For interoperability, we should have well-known names for statuses. Haze doesn't use the well-known names for extended-away and hidden, which means Empathy's fairly simplistic status selector can't set them; Haze's names are also not in Mission Control's list of fallbacks. Pseudo-patch: static const TpPresenceStatusSpec statuses[] = { { "available", TP_CONNECTION_PRESENCE_TYPE_AVAILABLE, TRUE, arg_specs, NULL, NULL }, { "busy", TP_CONNECTION_PRESENCE_TYPE_BUSY, TRUE, arg_specs, NULL, NULL }, { "away", TP_CONNECTION_PRESENCE_TYPE_AWAY, TRUE, arg_specs, NULL, NULL }, - { "ext_away", TP_CONNECTION_PRESENCE_TYPE_EXTENDED_AWAY, TRUE, - arg_specs, NULL, NULL }, + { "xa", TP_CONNECTION_PRESENCE_TYPE_EXTENDED_AWAY, TRUE, + arg_specs, NULL, NULL }, - { "invisible", TP_CONNECTION_PRESENCE_TYPE_HIDDEN, TRUE, NULL, NULL, NULL }, + { "hidden", TP_CONNECTION_PRESENCE_TYPE_HIDDEN, TRUE, NULL, NULL, NULL }, { "offline", TP_CONNECTION_PRESENCE_TYPE_OFFLINE, FALSE, NULL, NULL, NULL }, { NULL, TP_CONNECTION_PRESENCE_TYPE_UNSET, FALSE, NULL, NULL, NULL } };
The proposed change (in branch smcv/hidden) does indeed work: my two Yahoo test accounts can now become invisible to each other. I haven't tested xa, but it can't be any worse than currently :-) http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=user/smcv/haze-smcv.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/hidden
Fixed in git, will be in version 0.3.4.
