Cool.  I've told the student to submit a strong proposal to both  
Adium and Gaim (and that it can be substantively the same  
application) -- that'll give us flexibility once all the apps are in  
to decide where best to accept it [if we do] given mentor  
responsibilities, number of other student projects, etc.
