Wow everyone, thanks for all your suggestions! @Michael: Thanks for the offer, but I don't think its really worth the learning curve of figuring out your whole code base. We've got how many GPS or Web Browser apps now? Two more IM Clients can't hurt:)
Here are the things I have decided to implement for now: * GUI Is definately going to be Elementary * Backend is _probably_ going to be telepathy, though I am still considering libpurple * I am going to start from scratch, not write a new GUI for Pidgin. I would rather stay away from Pidgin after the whole forking over text box resizing fiasco last summer. * I will not implement IRC, because I assume most people that would want to IRC from the FreeRunner know how or have set up an irssi+screen server somewhere. * I am trying to keep the scope of this very low, and just support the basic necessities of a chat program(including conurrent sessions). A lot of apps on the FreeRunner are pretty slow, and I don't think hardware is solely to blame. I would rather have a faster program then a more featureful one. * I am going to avoid small buttons, and instead opt for a large menu that can pull down. Thanks again for your encouragement everyone!
