 * mpim.history: collects chat history from multi-party conversations
 * conversations.history: universal scope for all 4 API calls mentioned above, it´s functionality depends on which of those 4 scopes is chatbot allowed to use. For example: if chatbot is allowed to view groups and channels but not allowed to view private messages and multi-party conversations, those API-calls get rejected automatically without limiting other scopes
+
+List of potentionally useful information that can be obtained with SLACK API calls:
+* channels.history:
+** list of all messages, events
+** timestamps of these messages
+* users.info:
+** name, real name, team name, e-mail
+** info about user being admin, owner, bot, restriced/ultra-restricted
+* channels.info:
+** all members
+** scope of the channel (private, public, mpim..)
+** latest message
+** number of unread messages
+** topic
+** previous names
+
+
+Potential ideas:
+* using timestamps to compute ratio of messages in certain time interval
+* using join time/leave time to compute user´s time online over certain period of time
+* limit channel history checking to certain time interval
+* limit channel history to certain scope of users (people from same team, admins...)
+* finding the moment where conversation had most messages for certain time interval
