[JDEV] probs w/ aim-t

[Brian Lalor]

I'm running the latest released version of the aim transport (0.85?) with
Jabber 1.2 and Gabber 0.8.  Occasionally, I'll see "AIM Transport is now
offline", but the aimtrans process remains running.  Probably just a poor
connection to the AIM server.

My first problem is that if the aim-t has gone offline, I can't (with
Gabber) just log back into the transport; I have to exit the client and
log back in.  This seems to be a problem with the aim-t not receiving the
list of buddies it is supposed to be watching for.  If I use the Gabber
"Log into transport" option, I will be once again connected with the AIM
server, but I can't see the presence of my AIM buddies.

The second problem I'm seeing is that if the AIM transport goes offline,
AIM buddies in my roster don't change their presence to away.

Is anyone else having these problems?  I think the second problem is
solely to do with aim-t, but I think the first is a bit more complex.

Thanks,
B
