Confused about contact mangement between Bonjour, Jabber, Gchat

Hi Gary,

I’ve been using Ichat but have some queries….does deleteing a buddy on Ichat also delete them from the Gchat list that the Ichat is linked to? As in if I were to log in through Gmail and open googlechat, would they be gone or there?
Similar query with Jabber vs Bonjour.
And what is Jabber buddies linkage with Address Book…do they synchronise contacts?

Thanks!

    I'm not sure. But these should be easy to test. Just try adding contacts and removing contacts (fake ones, for testing) and see what happens.

    Bonjour tracks people on your wifi, Jabber attaches them to your address book, and I am not sure about gmail chat, as I put all my google chat contacts into address book, so they would all be in the same window. Hope this helps!!
