Emesene2 alpha

Finally got a replacement for my studio 1435
Now I am using latitude e4300
Have been looking for alternative for wlm in ubuntu. Nothing new found.
Emesene still under development. Hope it will come out soon
Since I have more free time now, I decided to try.
Emesene2 alpha. Alpha means haven't complete yet
I don't like emesene 1.5 beta. The black msn icon I don't like.

Download the version you want to test, the 3 versions above are located at:
1. emesene 1.0.x: http://emesene.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/emesene/tags/emesene-1.0/
2. emesene 1.1.x: http://emesene.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/emesene/trunk/emesene/
3. emesene 2: http://emesene.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/emesene/trunk/mesinyer/

Now that you have the code, cd to the folder and run emesene
1. python Controller.py # to run emesene
2. python emesene.py # to run emesene 2
To download all the changes that where made to the repository.
To make that, cd into the folder and then do: svn up, that will update all the files.

Emesene2 code name mesinyer
My test on Emesene2 alpha, still using it right now.
What I found not ready.
1. Cannot change display picture
2. Cannot web cam (emesene 1.01 also cannot)
3. Some yahoo contacts cannot be added...
Hmm... Me want to go learn Python (hope i got time later)
Emesene is nice but need quicker developement.
Happy testing. Source: http://emesene-msn.blogspot.com/2009/01/how-to-test-development-versions-of.html
