Comment (by hexion):

 Sorry for my english, I meant: "Another example of a closed ticket without
 any CRITERION"

 I didn't post any log, not edited nor unedited. That was another used
 called "chckens"

 Whatever you want.. you are the lord of the truth here. Only one thought:
 this is not the path to get a good software nor to interact with the
 users. We made the effort to post here the bugs we find to "help" open
 projects (it's another way of helping, not as important as coding but it's
 important too), and you just ignore us in the moment you find a word you
 don't like in the comment or you don't understand something.

 I'll try to explain you again. The last try... you can ignore this if you
 want.

 With gaim (last I tried was SVN version before the name change) this
 didn't happen.
 Pidgin closes the connection in a 1 or 2 minutes timeout. Ok, I think the
 timeout should be much longer or even I wouldn't set any timeout and just
 close the session when we close the conversation window... but ok.

 The problem is that, if that timeout is reached and we send another line,
 NO NEWER CONNECTION IS OPENED. And then, we cannot write until the contact
 writes another line and his/her client opens a newer connection with us.
 If he/she doesn't write again, we wont be able to write anymore, even
 restarting Pidgin.

 And this happens both with visible and hiden contacts.


 As you can see, this issue isn't a problem that happens only here... but,
 again, feel free to ignore it as you did before.
