Comment (by gd):

 Hi,[[BR]]
  I wrote a patch that may be useful, its not p2pv2, it fetches the buddy
 icon from the web profile, so it will only work if your contacts use a
 client that updates it. Also, the web profile display picture is not
 instantly updated, so it may take a second change of state from your
 contact to actually update the DP.[[BR]]
  I have no idea about programming I wrote this using common sense and
 google, so someone should check it for bad practices. [[BR]]


 Hope it helps!
