Yes, in fact encryption code as a plugin is ideal. That way it doesn't bloat
up the Licq code. The new design of Licq will be made to include this
functionality.

Yes, we will work on documentation as we make it. I personally prefer to use
Doxygen for C/C++ projects. If anyone knows of any better tools, please let
me know.

It was created with the main goal of giving good documentation to new user's
of Licq or provide tips of using it. How many people are aware that they can
use Licq on their home PC, and via a web server have nearly complete control
of their Licq remotely? Not many I bet. Or the DCOP interface.... it's not
documented _anywhere_.

Well, with respect to the Roadmap, it will be added there after we have
discussed where to go. We need to have the actual discussions before we can
just start adding stuff. It will be used as a place to record the roadmap,
and provide people a record of what is being done so they can then add to the
discussion on the ML/IRC/etc, and then after that the road map on the wiki
will be updated.

Yes, I saw that and modified it a bit ;)

Yeah... pretty much that's right.

That's one of the advantages if we had had good documentation from the
start...

Well..  cleanup the plugins list is a good start. Add a Wiki link would be
nice too (in the menubar).

Well, they arent decided yet... Perhaps you should join us on IRC when we set
the time and day for sure? You have the motivation it seems, just need to get
everyone focused on what we are doign first :)
