Will you still be maintaining the code?  Do you have a list of todo's?

How about design issues?  I.e. I read in the archives that Gossip is a
Jabber client, that uses server side plugins to support other IM
protocols.  Telepathy intends to support other protocols directly.  Will
Gossip follow?

Has anyone thought about how to support voice/video chat?  I.e. I assume
we'll be using gstreamer?  Do we need some kind of framework for it?  Or
can we call directly into the gstreamer glib API from the telepathy layer?

Does this imply the code is still on a branch?  I thought it was merged?
