If you're a Java-Developer it may be better for you to decompile the S40 Version of WhatsApp? - Thats the version I had a look at and is written in Java
Oh and maybe it would be better not to share the "original" WhatsApp code here, just the things we found out about how it works.
I don't know the legal positon but sharing code that is (c) by WhatsApp isn't that good I would say
The last thing I think maybe would be good to know: Is somebody having a phone with an official WhatsApp version to do some sniffing? This may also would be helpful, especally to get to know i.e. what information the mobile phone really sends u.s.w.
-> A Nokia S40 Phone (which supports WhatsApp) would be the best I think because at least that would be the source where most of us are getting their information from?!

I do have an official whatsapp on my android device, not really sure how I will sniff the data on the whatsapp?
Setup up a wireless network using my laptop as a gateway and sniff the traffic that way? i do have a usb wireless dongle so could do that once I am able to setup the routing tables.

i don't think we need any newer version
for now i still did not understand what is required to build a plugin like (like skype or gtalk ones) for n900 ? empathy ? telepathy ? pidigin ? what exactly ?????????????
for now we have the login and registration procedures that works (yes !) lets implement them into "something" as a start , then after , implementing xmpp to that all won't be hard . 2-3 days of development would set that all . but the problem is WHAT TO DEVELOP ? get me an answer for that !

Say we did create a plugin for something (one of those frameworks mentioned). Would we still be able to send files, have >1 party IM sessions, be able to send broadcast messages? (I have zero knowledge of this)
Porting WhatsApp is one thing, but the reason people use it is because of the above features, we need to make sure they are done otherwise it not really going to help many people.

For anyone else who wants to have a crack at this: go ahead but unfortunately I can't/won't share the information I have because of the simple fact that it's all in my head or scrambled around in text files and putting it together in something coherent and usable will take too much time. Anyone experienced enough to reverse engineer WA won't have too much trouble gathering this information anyway so I don't expect that to be a problem.
