Project summary
This project intends to build a simple and easy to use IM client plugin for Canola. Initially, we intended to use python-purple as the lib for communications, but we decided to use telepathy instead to be compliant with Maemo's standard.
Proposed and possible features
- Client connected in background
- Tray icon to warn about received messages
- Auto-login option
- Bonjour protocol support for finding other Canola users in local network
- Suggest features! New ideas are always welcome!
