Pidgin and Sametime 8

[Jason Mullins]

I work in a Lotus environment with Sametime and Notes , so I'm trying
to use Pidgin as a replacement client for Sametime (and my other IM
accounts).

Once installed it works well, but it doesn't update my Sametime
buddies (which are mostly managed from Notes and Sametime). The
buddies were loaded once (on configuring the Sametime account) but
have not updated since. Seeing as I've had to completely re-build my
buddy folders due to re-orgs that leaves me with a very out of date
Pidgin buddy list.

Is there a way to force Pidgin to keep it's buddies synched with the
Sametime server?

The Sametime buddies are definitely server side...

Thanks,

Jason.
