my plan is to make D-Bus a hard requirement for the Bluetooth daemon. At
the moment it is optional and unless the API is marked as stable I don't
really tend to change this. Moving over to D-Bus as a hard requirement
would make it possible for me to drop a lot of ugly code that deals with
non D-Bus compilations. We are using only the low-level API and so I
don't really care about the bindings, but I fully understand that they
correlate somehow. I actually need an honest estimation how far the
low-level API is away from being stable.

Marcel
