           Summary: Rethink connectivity API, as part of m-c-p
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
               URL: http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=user/smcv/telepathy-
                    mission-control-
                    smcv.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/request-plugin
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: mission-control
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk

Cloned from Bug #24762, which said:

"""
At the moment MC has a very large plugin API, which we can't keep stable for
very long at a time due to internal refactoring; as a result, we've turned off
plugin support in Debian and recommend that all distributions do the same. This
is basically rubbish.

...

Subsequent things to do to close this bug:

...

* work out how to turn the connectivity API (as used in Maemo 5) into a plugin
too
"""

The current connectivity API is not directly suitable, since it splits the
logic between MC and the plugin, with a number of subtle interactions; this is
hard to maintain.
