Good questions, all of them

Philip is working on it, but things are moving slowly.

Yes, thanks to a new volunteer developer. A big friendly hello to Shuying 
Wang, our new Jabber developer! What's more, the new services architecture 
allows Jabber transports to be used as backups to the ordinary service 
plugins. Cool, no?

> 3) will there ever be an inclusion for Odigo? (www.odigo.com)
Ooh, never heard of it. I'll take a look. Do you have any more details on how 
it works? I'm also interested in anyone who knows anything about how VCM 
(Virtual Corporate Messenger, I think - it's a LAN-based IM thing) works.

Not with the current module, which uses TOC. However, we could be moving at 
some point to an ICQ/OSCAR library such as libicq2000, which does support 
such things.

> 5) are there more gui's being developed now, except the QT one?
There are noises being made. Rob's doing a curses one at some point (ie when 
he has the time), and Edward and others have discussed adapting the current 
(GTK) one. However, Qt is the only one under active development. I would like 
this to change - if anyone feels up to doing a user interface, please give me 
a yell!
