WARNING: Brain-dump on this page. Please take with a liberal pinch of salt

Design Notes/Features

• KCM Module - can be reused in config dialog of any Telepathy using App to give a "configure accounts" option.

• Built in default auto-generated UI as a fallback for configuring any Connection manager.

• Plugin interface to provide prettier UI's for particular connection managers.

• Plugins for most important connection managers asap:
  • Gabble
  • Butterfly
  • Salut
  • Haze (mainly the more common protocols in Haze)

Current Status

Written, with a gabble plugin. HOWEVER, the design turns out to be a bit crap, and quite limited, so we need to refactor quite a lot.

TODO: Explain what's crap about the current design (Grundleborg 15:37, 12 January 2010 (UTC))
