Yep, for me it happened for all my contacts (Facebook, GTalk, Skype and AIM) too.

Though it happened only once (when I rebooted and got online for the first time after installing the app).

Tested it again for:
1. Reboot and went online - did not receive those bulk notifications.
2. Went offline and online - did not receive bulk notifications.
3. Disabled an Account and re-enabled - did not receive bulk notifications.

Not sure how you get the presence change but seems the notifications were for initial presence change (no presence to offline/online). If this can be handled by some post install script which suppresses the notifications but just gets initial presence, then there won't be these bulk notifications. I may be completely out of context here but just a thought.

When too many contacts go offline or on, the window sizes become so small that you can only see 1 displayed. It does not display the contact name. BTW, this is on skype.

Not tested atm but gonna download it but i have already some stuff to ask :

1) Anyway to have notification and/or a list widget with all evenement on a list.

2) Anyway to put notifications for particular contact ? Like i want notification only for Contact X and Y ?


Ty for your great work :D

Re: [Announce] Presence Notifier
 
thank you for this! another great addition to the n900. i am testing it now, and everything seems to be working as expected. i have one question and one feature request.
Q: how can we expect this to affect battery life?
FR: vibration or sound when a on contact come online (useful when screen is off/locked). and, perhaps the ability to disable notifications entirely when device is secured to save battery.
thanks again for all your hard work.

Nice app! How about allowing some sound configuration too?
:D

hi, its working great on my device, need to ask something, in your next version can we get an update for offline contact,means as a contact goes offline can get the same notification...and yes adding sound while getting onlne, offline would be awsome...

regards.

Re: [Announce] Presence Notifier
 
Many great ideas, thank you!

This is the first thing I will work on:
When you go online the first time after a reboot it
may happen that you recieve dozens of notifications
for all your contacts.

And after that:
enable/disable notification for every account, or contact.
A per account configuration should be simple to
implement.

For the sound and/or vibra notification I am not
sure how annoying this may be. I will make some tests,
but I thing it is good to have this option only per
contact or account and not for all notification.
