I'm at home, I've no NAT and opened the required ports for proper MSN
file transfer. But when testing file transfer of the same file using
amsn and kopete, the file is generally much much slower to transfer
using kopete (more than 10 times). I tested it both when sending and
when receiving files. Is it because of the way kopete handle file
transfer in msn (maybe it is an indirect connection) ?

Kopete doesn't have an implementation of P2P file transfers yet. All
files go through the server and this is why they are much slower than in
aMSN. There are plans to add P2P support, of course, but it will
probably not happen in the 0.12 timeframe. The KDE4 release of Kopete is
a much more likely target.

I notice really great differences between original msn and kopete in filetransfer (I've got a not configurable NAT so relay transfer is mandatory).
With kopete it's really slow while with msn is quite good! So implementation is still quite different... If I remember well I get good results even with AMSN... see its code!

I am afraid that even if it is solved in KDE 4.0, there will be brand new bugs because of all the new changes, and we'll never have a usable version.

It's so frustrating that a bug filed over (and over) a year ago is still
open, quite ignored. If mantainer has no time to follow this task he
could ask some sort of help. Even thinking that correct code exists in
an other gpl software (aMSN) shouldn't be so hard to port to kopete.
Hope this will be solved some way soon ...

I think that the irony was evident. If I knew how to code, I would do it

Look, i don't know for how long, years maybe, that I can't transfer a big file over MSN network with kopete. By big I mean more than 1MB!
I don't know if it's the lack of the P2P transfer, but slow or fast, it doesn't work right.
This IS IMPORTANT. How can someone expect to have kopete as a valid option, if it can't do one of the most useful MSN features right?
Best regards

Exactly! This is not just "some loss of functionality under specific
circumstances", this is a *fundamental* feature of MSN that *never*
works. A lot of people (including me) have been forced to switch to all
kinds of horrible IM clients, just because Kopete doesn't fully
implement the MSN protocols.

the sad truth is I already moved onto Skype, because they DO file transfers with a proper speed, and with details on the file transfers (e.g Size of the File, Name/Location of the File, ETA, etc.....)
that's what I imagine file transfers to do....I was once told in the IRC kopete chat, that this will be worked on for KDE 4 (Kopete). But apparently it wasn't really?!
No offense to the KDE/Kopete Developers, I'm sure you're doing a good
job, I'm just trying to point things out!

I wasn't able to test the SVN version of Kopete. KDE 4 compiles have
brought several package collisions with the KDE 3 branch.
However, I would like to know if P2P transfers have been succesfully
solved in the new WLM plugin. And, most specially, if that plugin will
ever be backported to the 0.12 branch (Qt 3). My system is rather old
and KDE4 is a big burden to my resources.
