[kopete-bugs] [Bug 228527] Activating the option "Animate on message with open chat" doesn't work like it used to in 4.3.4. Kopete's system tray icon doesn't animate anymore upon receiving new messages on open, unfocused/minimized chat windows.

Thank you very much for your remarks. I really appreciate that since it makes
me (and probably others) see the situation much clearer. I think a lot of all
the KDE4-trouble would have been swallowed down much better if there would have
been more transparent communication like yours.

(Although I'm not sure if any communication could heal what happened (and
happens) to kde-pim, kmail and kaddressbook being such great AND essential
applications. In the past.)

However, if this kopete notification issue is gone in SC 4.5 and 4.6, I
definitely understand that it makes not much sense to invest time into porting
the functionality to an old and hopefully soon to be replaced branch, 4.4. 

No idea which flavour of bug closing applies here.

Thanks again for your work, I hope kopete will stay my fav IM client.
