The Telepathy project is building a unified framework for many
|
|
different kinds of real-time communications. It uses the D-Bus
|
|
messaging system to provide a simple interface for client applications,
|
|
allowing them to quickly take advantage of Telepathy's benefits.
|
|
|
|
* Real-time: Telepathy supports instant messaging (both one-to-one
|
|
and in groups), voice calls and video calls; it's less suited for
|
|
store-and-forward applications like email
|
|
|
|
* Unified: Many different programs can take advantage of these
|
|
communications; Telepathy lets these programs work together
|
|
|
|
* Framework: Telepathy allows the different aspects of communication
|
|
handling to be divided between different parts of the system,
|
|
meaning each part is simpler
