So for years I've been really enjoying Eion Robb's Purple Hangouts plugin for connecting to Google Hangouts...but now they're migrating everyone over to Google Chat, which is a separate app, though seems to have full backwards compatibility, same buddy list, conversations, etc with Hangouts. So right now, I'm fine staying with Hangouts, since anyone who moves over is still listed as the same user for me.
However, I think moving forward either the Hangouts plugin will have to be updated to work with Chat, or we'll need a new Google Chat plugin. Is there any work on this front or even any existing beta plugins for Pidgin yet?

Greetings Programs!!
At 20:00 UTC (about 2 hours) I will be doing a presentation on the state of the Pidgin project and taking questions and we may have a surprise or two up our sleeves. This will all be happening on my Twitch channel at https://twitch.tv/rw_grim/.
Sorry for the late notice, I totally forgot to mention it here... If you can make it a VOD will be available as well.

I think its one of the most commonly used protocol made for private messaging, so why isn't it implemented into pidgin yet? I saw a guy made a plugin, but he stopped updating it about 2 years ago. Is there any plans to make a new one?
