The
Contact
Availability
Prediction
plugin
(
CAP
)
attempts
to
provide
feedback
as
to
the
availability
of
buddies
in
your
buddy
list
beyond
that
of
their
status
.
It
gathers
various
bits
of
information
as
you
use
Pidgin
(
and
the
plugin
is
running
)
and
provides
a
"Response Probability"
value
between
0.0
and
1.0
.
For
those
new
to
probability
a
value
of
0
means
0
%
chance
and
1
means
100
%
chance
.
Currently
the
probability
value
is
only
displayed
in
the
tooltip
of
a
buddy
but
in
future
graphs
will
be
available
showing
usage
patterns
.
In
order
to
build

x
are
required
to
build
and
use
the
plugin
.
The
--
enable
-
cap
option
must
also
be
set
during
the
configure
phase
of
building
.
At
the
moment
MySQL
is
the
only
database
backend
that
can
be
used
but
this
will
later
be
extended
to
both
Postgres
and
SQLite
.
After
installation
the
schema
must
also
be
created
in
the
database
.
Adding
code
to
automate
this
is
on
my
todo
list
but
executing
the
following
command
in
the
directory
containing
cap
-
mysql
.
sql
will
produce
the
correct
tables
in
the
desired
database
.

*
Maximum
response
timeout
This
value
is
how
much
time
will
be
allowed
to
pass
after
you
message
a
buddy
while
waiting
for
a
response
from
them
.
If
from
the
time
you
message
them
to
that
time
plus
maximum
response
timeout
value
they
have
not
yet
responded
to
you
a
failure
is
logged
.
If
they
do
respond
within
that
timeframe
then
a
success
is
logged
.
*
Maximum
last
-
seen
difference
This
value
is
not
currently
used
but
will
be
used
at
a
later
date
to
prevent
useless
data
from
being
recorded
.
*
Threshold
This
is
how
many
minutes
before
and
after
the
current
time
should
be
looked
at
when
computing
a
buddies
response
probability
.
The
larger
the
value
the
more
data
that
is
available
but
the
larger
the
timeframe
it
will
encompass
and
thus
the
less
accurate
the
prediction
will
be
.
As
data
collection
increases
this
value
can
be
reduced
for
more
fine
tuned
statistics
.
