Comment 31 for bug 392195

I implemented this:

    http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=user/jonny/telepathy-butterfly.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/http

I added a "use-http" parameter (using that name to be consistent with haze's MSN parameter) to force using an HTTP connection so if users know 1863 won't work, they can avoid the long timeout delay.

I played with my router (no doubt annoying my housemates) and it all appears to work with appropriate ports blocked.

Another one for you to review, Olivier!
