I noticed that Empathy (included with Ubuntu 10.04) now includes the
MXit protocol option (via telepathy-haze).
It unfortunately does not work since the first time you connect to
MXit it needs to authorize some account information (country,
language, anti-bot captcha).
This is requested from the user using purple_request_fields(), and I
see that telepathy-haze doesn't implement that API
(http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=telepathy-haze.git;a=blob;f=src/request.c).
Are there any issues in getting this API implemented?
Yes: telepathy-haze doesn't present any UI itself, so it can't show
dialog boxes. This is why the purple_request_* API isn't implemented.
I think the way out of this is, unfortunately, to have a channel type
for captchas and stuff, which would look pretty much like the
authentication channels Eitan is working on.
