Call for MXIT

Post by Atmosphere »

Mxit recently launched a chat client for PCs. What are the chances of implementing this into adium too!?

A cursory search seems to indicate that they are using bastardised XMPP and also only allowing federation with Gtalk.

I would suggest the OP complain to MXIT about their perversion of the standards and request proper c2s XMPP support which would enable Adium to work without any modification.

ok so for some reason mxit is not working 100% yet. you run the DMG, it looks like it works fine, but all that happens is it shows up under the Extras in the Plugins. Afaik there's supposed to be an extra account option for it... but i don't see it.
