wilmer@gaast.net-20051106182318-bcd0c40510635707 Since version 0.8x, BitlBee supports groupchats on the MSN and Yahoo! networks. This text will try to explain you how they work.

wilmer@gaast.net-20051106182318-bcd0c40510635707 As soon as someone invites you into a groupchat, you will be force-joined or invited (depending on the protocol) into a new virtual channel with all the people in there. You can leave the channel at any time, just like you would close the window in regular IM clients. Please note that root-commands don't work in groupchat channels, they only work in the control channel (or to root directly).

BitlBee will refuse to join you to the channel with that name, but it will create a new virtual channel with root, you and jim_msn in it.

wilmer@gaast.net-20051106182318-bcd0c40510635707 Of course a channel with only two people isn't really exciting yet. So the next step is to invite some other people to the channel. For this, you can use the <emphasis>/invite</emphasis> command of your IRC client. Please do keep in mind that all the people have to be on the same network and contact list! You can't invite Yahoo! buddies into an MSN groupchat.

wilmer@gaast.net-20051106182318-bcd0c40510635707 Obviously the (numbered) channel names don't make a lot of sense. Problem is that groupchats usually don't have names at all in the IM-world, while IRC insists on a name. So BitlBee just generates something random, just don't pay attention to it. :-)

wilmer@gaast.net-20080302221206-536f5q1nzk5m22a2 If you want to start a groupchat with the person <emphasis>lisa_msn</emphasis> in it, just join the channel <emphasis>#lisa_msn</emphasis>. BitlBee will refuse to join you to the channel with that name, but it will create a new virtual channel with root, you and lisa_msn in it.

wilmer@gaast.net-20080302221206-536f5q1nzk5m22a2 You can also add more information to your away message. Setting it to "Busy - Fixing BitlBee bugs" will set your IM-away-states to Busy, but your away message will be more descriptive for people on IRC. Most IM-protocols can also show this additional information to your buddies.
