-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Congratulations are in order, I think, for the Telepathy developers. Gnome 2.24 was just released, and from
http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.24/ """ GNOME 2.24 announces the inclusion of an instant messaging client based off the Telepathy communications framework. Empathy also supports XMPP/SIP audio and video conferencing as available on the Nokia N800/N810 devices (video requires H.263 codecs for GStreamer to be installed). Empathy is a great companion to Ekiga, GNOME's audio/video SIP client (see Section 2.3 ― Ekiga 3.0). Telepathy provides a common framework for applications to access instant messaging functionality. It can utilise many common protocols including Jabber/XMPP, Google Talk, MSN Messenger and Apple's Bonjour/Rendezvous local network chat. Any application is able to utilise the instant messaging session. As well as the Empathy client, GNOME 2.24 provides libraries enabling developers to add presence and status information, transfer files or set up sockets (known as Tubes) for collaboration and games over the Internet. See Section 4.4 ― Instant Messaging Libraries for more information on how this technology can be utilised in your application. """ In other words, Telepathy is now a bona fide upstream project, and will likely soon have many more non-Sugar users than Sugar users. This is good news for us. - --Ben -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkjax6wACgkQUJT6e6HFtqQWrgCfd+XMuimmRxI6G3et5qCPGRAH w9YAnRqTHrtqvb5bblSEuRA+enmjk15m =jxL1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
