 1. When select a different account, mark it as '''default'''

 1. '''Expand the session frame horizontally''' to fill on the drawer to its full width and draw just one line between two voice calls

= Sessions =

 * Center the '''drawer title''' and make it look like a title bar

 * When the active session is selected with the mouse, what is typed must be transmitted as DTMF tones

 * When an incoming request has '''chat only''' and the from header is in the contact list, automatically accept the session

 * Highlight the active session with a '''bold''' border

 * When a session has ended, display it for '''5 more seconds''' then hide it and shuffle the deck

 * Append chat messages to '''chat.history_directory/sip_account/YYYYMMDD-recipient.txt'''

 * For each message that appears in the history window:

  * First display a rounded thin rectangle with the '''recipient''' on the left and '''full date''' on the right side of the text in history with either light blue or grey background depending on which party is typing it , display the full FROM headers

  * Then display the content of the message

 * For '''account.ringtone''' advanced setting, the default setting must be inherited from '''general.ringtone.inbound'''

 * '''general.message_received_sound''' does not fit in window

 * Allow ordering of accounts in the account list

Hide the following settings, they should not be editable from GUI:

 * global.chat.accept_types

= Engine =

 * If '''engine is dead''', the message  '''no sip account is active''' is displayed but is unclear what the real reason is. An engine stop must be logged to general debug window

 * If the engine has stopped (because of some crash) the preferences do not show anymore:

{{{

Blink[26992:10b] <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'>: 'Engine' object has no attribute 'output_devices'

}}}

By setting the wrong TLS certificate files, the middleware does not start anymore:

}}}

= Presence bar =

Make it as high as the contacts (two rows high).

 * Show '''own photo''' to the left

 * Show '''Display name''' next to the photo on top row

 * Show '''presence activity''' next to name on top row

 * Show '''activity note''' on second row

= Debug window =

 * Display all traces in a '''debug window''' with tabs for each debug type

 * Add a '''General messages''' window to the Debug menu, first item

= GUI settings =

Remember the following settings between restarts:

 * '''Main window''' size and screen position (done)

 * '''Debug window''' and the selected tabe

 * Status of '''contact groups''' - colapsed/expanded and their order

 * SIP '''accounts order''' list

= Middleware changes =

 * Check the validity of the TLS certificate before starting the engine

 * Move '''account.outbound_proxy''' to '''account.sip.outbound_proxy'''

 * It seems that the stun servers are learned from the DNS and cannot be overwritten in settings, they show up automatically

 * if I set the relay to abcd.com you must use the default standard port of 2855, now is set to zero: relay = abcd.com:0;transport=tls

 * Append dummy to the lists of available audio devices

 * We need a solution to accept a session without a 180- ringing. For instance we can have automatic answer based on various preferences.

 * Move '''general.audio.codec_list''' to '''general.rtp.audio_codecs'''

 * Move '''account.audio.codec_list''' to '''account.rtp.audio_codecs'''

 * Move '''account.audio.srtp_encryption''' to '''account.rtp.srtp_encryption'''

 * Delete '''account.audio''' section
