It's long, but it's not redundant. :)

Cool, someone should be able to get to it shortly.

In Telepathy *not* D-Bus? But Telepathy is a D-Bus API, you have to use
it over D-Bus. If you want to receive presence signals at the moment you
give the bus daemon a match rule for the PresenceUpdated signal on the
connection you care about, and you receive a message whenever it's
emitted by that connection. I still don't really understand what you'd
have us do differently. Could you give an example?
