so Denis and I had a long chat about this. And essentially the history agent concept is not really something that we should maintain long term. We need be able to Tracker to listen on the D-Bus system bus and have oFono history plugin send data directly to Tracker. The history plugin should track if Tracker is running or not. If not spool. Otherwise send data to Tracker directly. Everything else is a pretty much complicated design. However for a short term solution, you could do a history agent concept as part of a MeeGo specific plugin. So use org.ofono as D-Bus service name and com.meego.TelephonyHistory and com.meego.TelephonyHistoryAgent as interface names. The main object path is / since are not going to make this based on a per modem. Two method calls in the agent a) ReportVoiceCall a) ReportTextMessage and that is it in. In the info dict include the Modem property which points to the modem object this information originates from. Failure of not existing a) or b) should be handled gracefully so that in the first error case we don't retry anymore.
