 > [wiki:seanegan]: It would be cool if the page matched the Tango style guidelines ([http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Theme_Guidelines]) the same way that Pidgin does. In particular, the "download" and "learn more" buttons are a bit too shiny.
 
->> [wiki:kstange]: If it's possible to detect the browser platform without Javascript, I think it would be better to generate the download box on the server-side, though I'm not sure if the User-Agent would provide enough information.  I'm likewise not certain you can tell someone is using Ubuntu/Fedora/DistroX even if you do use javascript.  The arch and platform should be determinable with the User-Agent alone.

+>> [wiki:seanegan]: What difference does it make if it's done client-side or sever-side? I posted a link somewhere in Trac to client-side tricks you can do to see what IM clients are already installed, so that the protocol list can be prioritized. Certainly not crucial, but probably a fun hack.
+> [wiki:kstange]: I prefer not using Javascript when it's not necessary in order to prevent client-side inconsistencies, but that's just a matter of opinion.  If there are things we'd like to do that can't be done that way, I am certainly not going to try to stand in the way of them. :)
