I think we can start with a list here, and then move everything to the
wiki later, so here is part of my wish list (actually whatever comes to
my mind), I'm not sure which one of those will be ready for 0.7.
You may not agree with some points, probably I won't agree with myself
when I read the list later, so let's discuss them ;)


[General]
* Cleanup/Stabilize/Improve Documentation/Unit Tests at least part of
the API A.K.A. "The ABI Normal Project"[1]
* Move all non-stable classes to a KTp::priv namespace and build them as
a separate library.
* Install CMake files to find KTp
* Qt5/KF5/C++11 porting
* KTp Meta repository
  - git submodules?
  - Use SuperBuild[2]?


[New Features/Fixes]
* Individual presence
* Activity based presence (ktp-accounts-kcm and ktp-kded-module)
* Clean some stuff, fix bugs, and new features in adium themes (yes I
know you hate them, but I don't see them disappearing very soon)
  - Use KTp::Message instead of
  - Background settings
  - Invisible background?
  - Case insensitive file names (will fix a lot of bugs in themes)
* Make the chat widget a kpart
* Make the contact list widget a kpart
* Handlers handling
* Metadata handling in file transfer
  - Send file metadata with the file
  - Attach contact metadata
* Port call-ui to GStreamer 1
* Demo chat improvement
* Make "Add New Contact" and "Join Chat Room" dialogs executable that
can be started by command line (so that they will appear in krunner).
Also make a "Start a chat" executable and add .desktop files for
ktp-dialout-ui and ktp-send-file.
* Use .desktop files for startable actions (contact-list, text-ui and
presence plasmoid)


[New components]
* Release ktp-kipi-plugin
* Release ktp-paste-contact
* Release ktp-ssh-contact
* Code formatting text-ui plugin
* Swear filtering text-ui plugin


[Repositories]
* Rename ktp-contact-runner -> ktp-runner
* Make a repository for tools (add-contact, join-chat-room, send-file,
make-a-call, paste-contact etc)? Alternatively, merge ktp-send-file in
ktp-filetransfer-handler, put join-chat-room in


[Upstream]
* Merge upstream patches[3]
* Fix deprecated warnings in tp-qt
* Check which tp specs are supported by tp-qt and try to upgrade them if
required


[Playground]
* ktp-active
* Test MUC dbustubes
* Merge KBattleShip + StreamTubes
  - Check that everything with .desktop files is working, that an
    action is added to the contact list, etc
* Zeitgeist
* Web Accounts


[Other]
* Take Bug count under 100
* World domination (ok, perhaps that's for 0.8)
