    5557== Automated usage statistics collection ==
    5658It would be useful if Pidgin included functionality to automatically collect various statistics from users and aggregate these statistics into a viewable form on the Pidgin website.  This would be useful in determining which features are popular and which are not, and could allow us to remove unused features and preferences.  Google Chrome and possibly Adium could be used as references for how to implement this.  Some requirements:
     
    5961 * Information must be easily viewable (so this project includes the client-side changes as well as possibly a server... but definitely investigate whether an existing solution could be used before creating a new one).  It's not clear whether it would be public or private.
    6062 * Could also include automated crash reporting.

    6265== Emoticon cache ==
     
    115118 * This particular idea may not be sufficiently complex to span a summer and it may be worthwhile to combine it with other web site or internationalization improvements to Pidgin or some other type of larger project.

    117122== libpurple detachable sessions ==
    118123This is an often-requested feature to which the response is often "run Finch in screen". Ideally, it would be possible for a user to run Pidgin and Finch simultaneously on a computer, with both programs sharing the same data and connections. This would allow users to leave Pidgin open, yet still access their IMs over SSH with Finch.
    119124
    120125This requires an implementation of some sort of libpurple daemon, and a method for the clients to connect to that server, and access and display the buddy list, conversations, and chats.  Existing ongoing conversations' history should be visible in Pidgin or Finch when they connect to this daemon.
