--- Comment #1 from Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk> ---
Connection manager implementations welcome.

Note that Java is an awkward language to be writing connection managers in: by
far the best-supported is C (or C++) with GLib, via telepathy-glib. I think
telepathy-qt might have some experimental support for writing Qt connection
managers too.

<http://unhandledexpression.com/2013/12/17/telegram-stand-back-we-know-maths/>
for some concerns about Telegram's security, which doesn't seem to be any
better than XMPP with TLS (it does have the potential to be end-to-end secure,
but so does XMPP via OTR or XTLS if someone wants to help us implement that).
