It abstracts +differences between protocols to provide a unified interface for +applications. + +Requirements +============ + +telepathy-gabble requires: + telepathy-glib <http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/releases/telepathy-glib/> + Loudmouth <http://www.loudmouth-project.org/download> + GLib, GObject <http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glib/> + libdbus <http://dbus.freedesktop.org/releases/dbus/> + The D-Bus GLib bindings <http://dbus.freedesktop.org/releases/dbus-glib/> + +At build time, it also requires: + GNU make <http://www.gnu.org/software/make/> + pkg-config <http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/pkg-config/> + libxslt, xsltproc <http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/> + Python <http://www.python.org/> + +See configure.ac for full details, including versions required. + +Building from Darcs also requires the GNU build system (Autoconf, Automake, +libtool). + +Bugs, feature requests and to-do list +===================================== + +Report all bugs, feature requests and "to-do" items here: + <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Telepathy&component=telepathy-gabble> + +Versioning policy +================= + +We use an "odd/even" versioning scheme where the minor version (the y in +x.y.z) determines stability - stable branches have y even, development +branches have y odd. + +Unreleased builds straight from Darcs identify themselves as version +"x.y.z.1". These are compiled with -Werror, so they might stop working +if your gcc version issues more warnings than ours. If this is a problem +for you, use a release tarball. + +Contact info +============ + +This package is maintained by the Telepathy project: + <http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/> + <mailto:telepathy@lists.freedesktop.org> + <irc://irc.freenode.net/telepathy> + +Telepathy development is supported by Collabora Ltd. + <http://www.collabora.co.uk/>. + +Hacking +======= + +The current version of telepathy-gabble is always available from: + <http://darcs.collabora.co.uk/darcs/telepathy-gabble/> + +Proposed patches awaiting review can usually be found in Merge Monkey: + <http://monkey.collabora.co.uk/> + +Please follow <http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/wiki/Style>. |
