[Banshee-List] Plugin Idea: Skype Call Mutes Banshee

["Josiah Ritchie" <josiah ritchie gmail com>]

I've been poking around the Skype 4 Linux world because it is used
heavily at my new job. I'm not happy with the majority of what I see
about Skype on Linux and am thinking seriously about suggesting a move
to something like Ekiga to go w/ open standards, etc. but that's not
the point.

I saw an interesting opportunity. Since Skype has added DBUS support
in Linux, I wonder if someone might enjoy making a plugin for banshee
that would watch for a call to come in on Skype and mute Banshee.
Seemed like it might be simple and fun for someone looking for a quick
project to explore banshee.

Here's the article about Skype that includes a note on adding DBUS support.
