[QUOTE="chipx86, post: 6589, member: 10546"] Hi there. I'm one of the Gaim developers, and have been using Media Portal program ever since I saw it on Slashdot not long ago. First of all, I've got to say that I love this program. I picked up a nice little Vaio for cheap from a guy at work and thought I was stuck with the horrible little Giga Pocket software. Anyhow, I've developed portions of Gaim so that it would be more or less trivial to do this kind of stuff. I don't have time right now to hack on this at all, but I've considered setting up a small client/server to pass presence information (who's online, their state, etc.) and whether or not you have new messages back and forth between a Linux or Windows box running Gaim and a Windows box running Media Portal. *Maybe* if I get some time and the desire, I'll do it. Otherwise, anybody who wants to set up a perl script or something could also interface the two. It just depends on whether or not you want an instance of gaim running full-time on your media portal box or not. :) [/QUOTE]
