Google Summer Of Code:Remote Logging in Pidgin

The goal of this project is to extend existing logging subsystem of Gaim, popular multi-platform instant messaging client. This extension allows to safely store your logs on different type of repositories and synchronize your logs with remote ones. With this extension you don’t need to copy valuable information form messenger to external device no more … [.]

This has always been my long lasting wish! Finally, as part of the Google Summer of Code , remote logging in pidgin is being developed by Shkutkov Michael. What this means is that I need not be on Yahoo Messenger(yuck) everytime so my chats gets saved in my inbox. Google Talk also has an option of logging all your chats(optional) in your Gmail inbox which I frequently use. Hopefully with the sucess of this users on Linux can safely chat without the fear of any logs getting missed out :)
