I've never released any of my mods before, so I'm not quite sure how to go about that properly. I think it'd just be easier to complete the mod and then add it to the collection, rather than add it to the collection and disappoint people when it's not done.

There's no way to add support for webcaming/file transfer without having to write a server side application that has to be installed - and I'm making this mod so that it utilizes the web server that's already there instead of having to install a server side app that listens for connections.

Plus, part of my security measures is not connecting people directly to each other, and without a server-side listening application the only way to do that feature is to connect each IMers to each other directly. That would reveal IP addresses (and especially with open source stuff it would be easy to throw in some code to show the IP address of the person you are chatting/caming/file transfering with).

So I will not add support for file transfer, or webcam (for information security purposes).

Yeah, that's why I don't think that I'd even use this mod on my own forums - my members don't have an interest in downloading yet another IM client.
