<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Here are some possible changes:<br>
-Keep current default behaviour, but always output a message like the following when an OTR conversation is started: This conversation is being saved/not being saved (depending on current settings).<br>
-Change current default behaviour to explicitly disable logging for OTR conversations, and output the above message.<br>
-When an OTR conversation starts, explicitly ask the user whether they wish to log OTR conversations (if no Pidgin-OTR logging preference is found), and perhaps output the above message. Once the user provides an answer, future OTR conversations will not trigger
this prompt.<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I don't think outputting a message like "this conversation is not being saved" is a good idea, because it gives a false sense of security. We don't know the client that is used by the chat partner and whether he is logging the conversation
or not.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Saying it is not logged would make a lot of people assume that it isn't logged anywhere, not that it isn't logged on their PC.<o:p></o:p></p>
