Just some information about Telepathy that might be interesting for the 
multiplatform support discussion: Telepathy is not multiplatform! It 
depends on D-BUS and Windows does not support D-BUS (yet). There are 
some discussion about porting D-BUS to Windows, however nothing exists 
yet. Telepathy runs on both Linux and OSX. However for OSX they point to 
another toolkit (chaTKit, www.chatkit.net) for instant messaging 
development. So using Telepathy will implicate dropping Windows support 
(for a while, until Windows supports D-BUS) or creating a workaround for 
Windows (keep using a monolithic program without IPC?? monolithic is not 
my favourite word ;-)). And for OSX I am not sure, the Telepathy guys 
say it runs on OSX, but they also point to chaTKit...
