PDA integration

KoenKooi: How does Telepathy handle the "away from computer, but online with (linux) PDA" case? It would be neat if one could teach Telepathy the concept 'roaming' between devices. Jabber has something like 'resource', but I haven't seen it being used much.

RobertMcQueen: The connection managers are intended not to have any persistent state, and just buffer messages in RAM until a client acknowledges them. This would go a little towards what you want, but some combination of a logger which snooped send/receive signals to keep a full history, and possibly a connection manager which could connect to a remote proxy running on eg your desktop machine and give you access to the connection and channel objects active there, might be the right solution.

Protocol Support

AriaStewart: Using the IRC NOTIFY command to see more or less "presence" of irc contacts in telepathy-idle would be awesome. How to handle without the connection manager keeping state though...
