Let me take the pleasure to announce our first public release of (telepathy) mission-control. The release is sufficiently stable and implements most of the features that were planned. We hope you will enjoy using it in your telepathy based communication softwares for more powerful integration. It uses glib and gconf hence is mostly suitable for GTK/GNOME based applications.
What is Mission Control?
=======================
Mission Control, or MC, is a Telepathy component providing a way for "end-user" applications to abstract some of the details of connection managers, to provide a simple way to manipulate a bunch of connection managers at once, to remove the need to have in each program the account definitions and credentials, to manage channel handling/request and to manage presence statues. See the diagram at homepage.
