Hi Phil,

Thanks for the gajim extension. Based on it I managed to create an integration extension for pidgin. :D

Thanks a lot! Using the session plugin already and I have to force Owen to fix gnome-shell extensions in Fedora to get a second. Thank you!

The extension code itself is not very complicated...

You need to have some way to get incoming notifications from your client and be able to display/send messages. To do this for Gajim I used their D-Bus API.

Once you have that ^^ the Shell integration is straightforward.

Would be great to have a piece of code to be able to plug in any xmpp client such as swift, psi, pidgin, mcabber and gajim.
