| ==Introduction== | | ==[[/Developers | Information For Developers]]== |
|
| |
|
| Real time Communication has traditionally been a detatched feature of Desktop Computing, provided via stand-alone Instant Messaging clients with poor integration into the desktop experience. One of the primary goals of the KDE 4 series is to tighten integration between different components of the environment. The Realtime Communication and Collaboration (RTCC) project aims to tackle just this.
| | ==[[/Testers | Information For Testers]]== |
|
| |
|
| Our aims are:
| | ==[[/Packaging_Guide | Information for Packagers]]== |
| * To integrate Real Time Communication deeply into the KDE Workspaces and Applications
| |
| * To provide a infrastructure to aid development of Collaborative features for KDE applications.
| |
|
| |
|
| If you find these goals appealing, why not consider [[#Getting_Involved|getting involved]]. C++ programming is *not* a necessity.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Technical Information==
| |
|
| |
|
| The RTCC project uses the cross-desktop [http://telepathy.freedesktop.org Telepathy Framework] as the basis for our work.

| | |
| ==Getting Involved==
| |
| At this stage, the best way to get involved is to contact the existing team, either on IRC (#kde-telepathy channel on irc.freenode.net) or on our [https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-telepathy mailing list].
| |
| | |
| ==The Work== | |
| | |
| What we need to get done. This is divided into two sections:
| |
| * [[#Phase_1|Phase 1]] contains the tasks which *must* be completed in order for us to make a first release.
| |
| * [[#Phase_2|Phase 2]] contains other speculative major features that we will probably implement once [[#Phase_1|Phase 1]] is complete.
| |
| | |
| === Phase 1 ===
| |
| | |
| These are the essential tasks which must be completed before we can make a first release. Adding or removing tasks from this list requires a consensus on the kde-telepathy mailing list first. Click on a task title for further information about that task.
