I really like the Idea of using lancelot/shelf for telepathy (see [1] to get an idea of my position) so you are really welcome here :D > * anything that will save me from yet another set of IM APIs (I got a bit > ill from psi and java's smack) :) The good news is that using telepathy + nepomuk you won't get a just set of IM APIs or a model, you will get an API and models to handle real persons. :D The bad news is that you will have to wait some more for that. :( >> some really exciting future plans to map not just individual IM >> contacts, but aggregated people from using data from all sources. > > When you say 'aggregated', does it imply akonadi as well?

If akonadi will associate a contact to a pimo::Person (the nepomuk resource that represents a physical person) then yes. About the fav persons, I think that it could be possible to use nepomuk to associate a rating (using stars) to pimo::persons and then sort the model and return just the persons over a certain ranking, or we can imagine a way to return the most used, etc. The other cool thing is that you can of course click on a contact and bring up a chat if he is online or a mail if he is not, but nepomuk supports also very complex queries. So you can, for example, do the opposite, i.e. you want to chat/send a file/share your desktop/play chess/collaborate on a document with someone? You can have a list of action that you support and when you can click on the right button you get a list of persons that are online and that support that action. The bad news is that you will have to wait even more for that. :( Cheers, Daniele [1]http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-telepathy&m=129745008530600 _______________________________________________ KDE-Telepathy mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-telepathy
