Yes, the elephant is in the room so we should do something about it.

We have Blink Qt releases for Windows and Linux scheduled this year. First stops are SIMPLE Presence and XCAP Contacts Management.

The small organisation (about 15 people) that I work for is completely 'sold' on Blink and we can't wait to get it deployed. Our organisation uses google apps and the contact list integration is an absolute winner. However, the lack of a call transfer feature is - for us, as an organisation - a real bummer.

If I knew the slightest bit about how to go about it I would be overjoyed to contribute myself (and if there were a 'Pro' windows version that I could buy that had the feature, I wouldn't hesitate). I also realise that it is relatively new, and that other features may be taking priority.
