+Q: Can I make gaim transparent?
+
+A: Transparency would make Gaim invisible. You probably want
+translucency. Translucency is not a feature of X11, therefore we do not
+support it. X.org provides a COMPOSITE extension to do this, but not only
+is it X.org-specific, it requires support at the GTK+ level (if it is to
+be per-widget). We also have no interest in the psuedo-translucency
+offered by some other programs. While WinGaim has a plugin to do this, we
+have no intention of including it for X11 platforms until supported by
+GTK+.
