Tomis,

I can't find any record that I replied, and I'm not sure if someone  
else did, so I wanted to get this conversation rolling again.

libgaim currently supports room listings; we haven't hooked up to the  
RoomList API, however.  What would need doing is implementing a Cocoa  
UI for room listings and then hooking it up to the libgaim RoomList  
API, which is already function-stubbed in adiumGaimRoomList.m within  
the Adium Gaim plugin.  Would you be interested in undertaking the  
project?  It's definitely a longtime feature request, and we'd be  
happy to have you on board with Adium :)

Cheers,
Evan
