Description

JEP: http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0071.html

This seems to be the up and coming standard to be used for rich text over IM. This supersedes the RTF or HTML support that some other clients use today.

I thought there were some comments in here but apparently not. XHTML-IM is on hold pending...not sure. XMPP stuff, I think.

I have a patch with the receiving part done. Translates every xhtml message in a QtRichText message, so it can be easily displayed in the any chat window.

I should upload that...

At the moment, i can receive XHTML content from iChat/mach2, but it would be cool to send this type of data with some user-friendly buttons ;)

Can Qt 4.4 / QtWebkit help here?

I'm all up for some supercession. My only concern is people who would abuse rich formatting and turn it to evil purposes... you all know who I'm talking about. If Psi includes this feature, make sure that there is an option to disable formatting on incoming messages!
