Damien Sandras a �it :
It should be hidden as much as possible. Perhaps having a very simple keyboard shortcut to make a text entry window appear would be possible? I mean, if someone is going to enter a phone number, (s)he has to use the keyboard already...IMNSHO the url is something people shouldn't see if they didn't type it themselves.So what do you propose?
Uh... unfortunately, for a jabber contact you don't have the url. When you want to make a call, you ask to the contact ('s client), then send _your_ url to get called. The idea is that in jabber, people are not supposed to have information about everyone, so if _you_ need p2p information _you_ disclose information about yourself.Things get messy when you have ils, jabber and phone number for a same contact. Or worse, several of each of those for a same contact...Having a system to see if the user is online is also required. That can be done later through jabber. The contacts list can be extended to support Jabber contacts, with a small phone icon next to their nickname if they accept H.323 or SIP calls.That's right, it is a problem, however, it can be easily solved : - if it has jabber info, it becomes a jabber contact and we get presence support, if not, it is not a jabber contact, and we have no presence support- the URL for voip will be unique
That has two advantages: * it is a security feature ; * the url is always up-to-date. Snark
