+Current state of this work can be followed in the '''[http://hg.pidgin.im/cpw/gillux/detachablepurple detachablepurple]''' repo (during GSoC, work happened in the [http://hg.pidgin.im/soc/2010/gillux/detachablepurple/ gsoc branch], which is outdated now).

-I didn't manage to complete this project before the end of the 2010 summer of code. But I definitely want this to work, be sure I'll carry out the project after the summer of code (contributions are welcome, though ;)).
+I didn't manage to complete this project before the end of the 2010 summer of code. There are two main reasons: lack of time and lack of gobjectification. About the latter, I used the [http://hg.pidgin.im/pidgin/gobjectification gobjectification branch] as a base for my project, because the combination of gobjects and dbus makes a powerful IPC mechanism. As a result, the detachable session project entirely depends on the gobjectification status. At the moment, only the gobjectified parts of the code (that is, accounts and buddy list) are getting synchronized between daemon and clients. The gobjectification branch is currently pretty much stalled. And so the detachable session project is.
