Please consider making a small plugin for kopete. It will only benefit KDE users. And if you feel like helping GNOME guys a Gaim plugin will do the justice. In GNU/Linux Gaim and Kopete are the popular multimessengers. Please...
Yes, I'll consider kopete plugin - probably when moving to Qt4 and also rewriting some parts of the code for better core vs gui separation.
VyQChat is a great application, you can also have a plugin for VyQchat for kopete. 1.VyQChat (standalone) 2.VyQchat-plugin (kopete plugin). this will definitely help kde to have lan to lan chat client. Please consider adding a plugin to kopete.
I have to say though I found a problem with ver 026. I am using vyqchat in a local lan with around 50 vypress users, and after about 5-10 minutes after logging on they are complaining about my vyqchat "flooding". They are receiving a message in vypress which sounds like that: "Incoming flood detected from 10.1.100.14. Ignoring user TaTaE for 5 minutes" I hope there will be a fix for that, because this is a great chat application.
I have same problem. Win-VyChat clients detect flood from vyqchat :( And I think that vyqchat incorrectly detects user encoding (UTF/ansi) - russian letters in messages from some users are displayed incorrectly :( P.S. Sorry for my bad English :)
savannah.gnu.org seems to have problems with webpages syncing through cvs and vyqchat homepage is not up-to-date. In case anyone wants to download the newest vyqchat-0.2.7, please use direct download link from this page, or go to download area using this link: http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/vyqchat/
Why don't you move from savannah to Berlios?

Well, kopete comes immediately to my mind; so, what about making it a kopete plugin?
Well, I wanted VyQChat to be KDE-independent. The only requirement is Qt and nothing more. Kopete plugin however is a nice idea, maybe I'll add it in the future as optional compile-time option.
Why? KDE integration gets you access to KIO, KFile dialogs, inter-program script-ability and a huge host of other functionality. Not to mention the 10 million desktops that KDE applications reside on. Bobby
