[ecf-dev] screen captures delivered via IM

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks,

Over the past couple of days, I and Marcelo Mayworm (based upon some 
previous work by Remy Suen) have added the ability to send a screen 
capture directly to Contacts List entries (i.e. buddies).

This uses the ECF datashare API, so works 'out of the box' over both 
XMPP/Google Talk and Skype.

I've created a couple of screen shots here

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Screen_Captures_over_IM

which I'll subsequently add to the New and Noteworthy in time for ECF 
2.0.0 milestone 5.

Also, I've created an enhancement request for Mylyn to eventually 
generalize and use their screen capture user interface...and hopefully 
some cross-project coordination will lead to greater user interface 
consistency for Eclipse projects.

If you have ideas/thoughts/work to contribute here please add yourself 
to the bug and/or comment here.

Thanks,

Scott
