And what use is an instant messenger that does not support Yahoo?
I don't know, I do not use Yahoo personally. It has multiple other plugins.
I didn't really expect an answer to this question. Most users here would expect an instant messenger to work with MSN and Yahoo--Kopete does!
Nobody uses Yahoo or MSN here though.
As a project with limited resources we do not support applications that: a.) Are maintained upstream b.) Have standalone replacements that fully include the feature set of the application in question
I would prefer to use an application that is integrated with my desktop.
c.) Would utilise an unusual amount of Trinity developer resources to maintain, especially applications where there are legal problems or b.) above applies. d.) Have a very low user base under Trinity.
I don't think user base of Trinity is large anyway.
I just asked you, whether you have it, not why you do not have it.
I know. :-) I just thought this was a good time to post some policy on what applications are included in Trinity.
