Hi,

I am writing my Google Summer of Code application. I want to create
themable HTML-Chat dialog for Psi.

I've submitted the QtWebkit based HTML-Chat proposal a month ago to
psi-devel (because I wanted to start developing Psi in my free time).
Now I would like to participate in GSoC but I am wondering about
"Themable WebKit-based Chat Dialogs".
In three months I could develop much more than themable chat dialog.

Well, I've done some investigation some time ago: I got through
PsiChatDlg and ChatDlg code, I checked Kopete Adium themes
implementation.
I think themable HTML-Chat dialogs for chats and groupchats, adium
themes, and theme (and theme variation) chooser could be done in less
than 2 months.
Therefore any suggestions are welcome before I sent my application.

XMPP Standards Foundation is the mentoring organization and there are
a lot of ideas (20) on jabber wiki. Although there is no doubt Psi is
the best jabber client (even if it needs modern look) I don't think
this task is critical for mentoring organization. What are the chances
this proposal will be accepted?

Regards,
Pawel Wiejacha.
