I just added a new FAQ (Is it possible to use a pre-existing XMPP/Jabber account of the form username@jabberservice.com with Kontalk clients?)
Maybe someone want review it.
I also added a link from/to desktopclient help page to android help page into the side bar.
@abika I think we should the desktopclient help page split into more pages (FAQ,developement and so on) like for android clent. What do you think?
Thanks @webratte, the new question for Android is perfect.
Iāll leave to @abika the review of the desktop client wiki, but they seem good to me as well. And the idea of doing a more complex article structure also for the deskop client wiki is great, also subjected to @abika approval: I believe more structured and regulated projects are more likely to attract developers.
Nice touch with the list of questions, thanks
Iāve fixed a couple of syntax errors, but for the rest is ok. Also please remember to always use relative links where possible instead of hard-coding the whole URL. For example:
* [What is the personal key?](#what-is-the-personal-key)
Thatās not possible every time, but please try and then use the full URL only when absolutely necessary.
You can apply the modifications on āTestpageā to the official FAQ page (can you do it for other languages as well?)
Phone numbers and hashes are basically the same thing in different representations (unfortunately).
So the sentence is just wrong. We have to remove it. Iāll do it.
Itās not only used to find other users. The (hashed) phone number is also your JID (=Kontalk address). Itās everywhere: in every message, public key and saved on server.
And ānormalā people donāt know what a hash is. We may have to explain it(?). I donāt really know whatās the best thing to write here is.
What about to explain it like:
Your (hashed) -Linked to a Wikipedia article - phone number works similar to a email adress. Every message need to be adressed to find the receiver and to know who is the sender.
The same for Pub key. There have to be also a adress to know itās your key wich itās used for encryption.
And of course a list of all Kontalk users (only there hashed phone numbers and niknames) to find other users.
This is a only draft in Bad english
But maybe a Basis to work with it.
