I think that if we want to split daemon/client, telepathy is an eccelent option since we would basically do the same thing with an implementation of our own. So the question is: would it be a good idea to split aMSN2 in a client/daemon structure? Based on what I see from the centerim project, a LO

I really don't like the dependency on DBUS, but that's the best way to achieve it. My main issue about using telepathy is that we were going to have a kind of preview 0.1 release in september. Should we still aim at that goal? I think we should since we don't know how much time will be needed to in

If you want a "fast" language, use OCaml : (http://caml.inria.fr/index.en.html) I code with this language at school, and it's very funny and pleasant. The code is also quite small; but it's not an easy language as python or tcl. It can be compiled in native code or in bytecode. Well, stop talking
