[gaim-migrate @ 104] Woohoo, the landing of the plugins. Nearly everything necessary is here. The only thing missing is that you can't load a plugin without signing on first (at least, not without some trickery). committer: Tailor Script <tailor@pidgin.im>

 so development should be quick. Try to have FUN with these plugins :-).
 (BTW, dibs on the 'control by file' plugin. :-) .)

+Other useful ideas I came up with later:

+-Auto-reconnect on kick
+-Stock/News ticker (I don't want it, but some people do)
+-Play games through the same gaim plugin

+	This one I think is one of my crazier ideas that I would only come up
+	with this early in the morning. This plugin would somehow determine if
+	the other person is using the same plugin. If s/he is, it would allow
+	the people to play a game against each other, like checkers. It could
+	be done by watching the messages passed and intercepting ones that
+	relate to the game/plugin. Conversation could even continue as usual.
+	What gets really warped is then you could write plugins for that
+	plugin for various games (checkers, chess, hearts (4 people!)). I have
+	no desire of trying this one, help yourself.

+There's going to be a few plugins that are going to ship with gaim by default
+eventually, probably. This would be a good thing to put in the PATCHES thing
