libfolks is a library that aggregates people from multiple sources (eg, Telepathy connection managers) to create metacontacts. This source distribution also builds a Telepathy backend (libfolks-telepathy-backend.so) and Telepathy-specific implementations of the libfolks classes (libfolks-telepathy.so).
