For the moment I can't say that "this is the idea". But as Geeklog provides
the basic functionalities like getting feeds, upload, download materials for
plugin developers, which extends the range of thinking in plugin
development, there is a good chance of providing a better functionality to
Geeklog with a plugin. So I am going through the Geeklog issue tracker and
going through issues with status "new", where I can find functionalities
which Geeklog still lacks, so that I can think of providing such as a
plugin. Also I am hoping to see Geeklog GSoC 2011 new ideas list as well.

Yes, of course. I am going through the details of it.
