Description Lucas Maneos (reporter) 2009-09-14 15:20:54 UTC 
SOFTWARE VERSION:
Unspecified Fremantle version (relevant bits not available in SDK, sorry),
based on bug 788 comment 3:

> To begin with, in Fremantle IM chat rooms are not supported.

This is a significant regression compared to previous versions, where
multi-user XMPP chat worked fine for years.  Please consider re-adding support
for multi-user chat.  This should be only a UI issue, as the underlying stack
(telepathy, loudmouth etc) does support the functionality.
Comment 1 Mikhail Zabaluev nokia 2009-09-14 16:35:33 UTC 
Giving a priority boost.
Comment 2 Andre Klapper maemo.org 2009-09-16 15:36:44 UTC 
(Also feel encouraged to vote for this ticket in order to push it.)
Comment 3 Andre Klapper maemo.org 2009-09-19 17:22:53 UTC 
Adding dependencies to all open multi-user chat bugs.
Comment 4 Lucas Maneos (reporter) 2009-09-19 22:36:27 UTC 
Adding bug 788 to the list, since it seens to have been closed only because of
this dependency.
Comment 5 Andre Klapper maemo.org 2009-09-29 17:24:12 UTC 
Telepathy Backend & Accounts UI support providing IRC, MSN, link-local XMPP and
access to using Pidgin's libpurple providing lots of other options is available
for Fremantle, see
http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/pool/fremantle/free/t/telepathy-*
directories.

What else is exactly missing?

I've installed the IRC one and now I just wonder how to enter a chat room. :-/
Comment 6 Olivier Crête 2009-09-29 17:57:24 UTC 
The UI is missing...
Comment 7 Quim Gil nokia 2009-12-07 09:42:00 UTC 
What is the situation of this one?
Comment 8 Quim Gil nokia 2009-12-07 09:43:17 UTC 
The scope of bugs.maemo.org are bugs and only very specific and no-brainer
enhancement requests. This report contains a feature request that is too
generic for bugs.maemo.org. Please post this problem and propose your
solution in Maemo Brainstorm instead:
  http://maemo.org/community/brainstorm/

This report is not feature request but regression report. Maemo4 had chatrooms
support and I used it a lot. For me it is a bug that Maemo5 do not have that
functionality.

*** Bug 6711 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 11 Quim Gil nokia 2009-12-09 08:48:13 UTC 
Alright, let me reopen this based on the 22 votes already here and the many
bugs blocked by this one.

I have asked to the RTCom team.
Comment 12 Quim Gil nokia 2009-12-15 07:49:47 UTC 
Expected to be available at some point in Fremantle.
Comment 13 EC 2009-12-21 18:30:54 UTC 
Good, i've just added my vote. In my opinion, this is a bug and not just a
simple request
Comment 14 Andre Klapper maemo.org 2009-12-21 18:39:05 UTC 
(Please avoid unneeded "me too" comments as they trigger mail to everybody
subscribed here. Just vote. Thanks.)
Comment 15 Nikita Youshchenko 2010-02-03 11:25:01 UTC 
pymucl, available from extras-devel, may be an alternative for now... although
it is currently very young and buggy.

Since PR1.2 there is a "Join chat room" menu item in Conversations, allowing
one to join a room by typing the room name and selecting the account to connect
with. This works for joining XMPP MUCs and IRC rooms, as spartan as it is. All
of the tickets blocking on this one have been closed. Is anything still missing
for this ticket to remain open?
Comment 18 Konstantin Starodubtsev 2010-09-30 15:02:01 UTC 
It is possible to join MUC now. But it is expected from client that it will
request from server last N messages from MUC history. Most of xmpp clients do
it, while telepathy on N900 doesn't. 
This is important feature as mobile clients lose connection more often than PC
client.

Added this as a MeeGo feature request:
http://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=8281

This bug is considered fixed, as basic support for MUC has been delivered.
Please file further enhancement requests for Harmattan and MeeGo.
Comment 20 Andre Klapper maemo.org 2010-10-25 17:12:58 UTC 
The problem reported here should be fixed in the update that was released today
for public: The Maemo5 update version 20.2010.36-2 (also called "PR1.3"
sometimes). Please leave a comment if the problem is not fixed for you in this
update version.
