This release is the first to contain a specification for Tubes, a mechanism
for collaborative applications to communicate over IM. We implement this
as a distributed D-Bus, which supports methods, signals and multiple
users, but has no central bus daemon or well-known name management.
There are also a number of clarifications:
* the interaction between Renaming and GetSelfHandle
(the self handle is valid until a Renamed signal indicates that it's
changed)
* the semantics of calling HoldHandles repeatedly (it's the same as
calling once)
* channel-specific handles and general-purpose handles must be distinct
* there can be no more than one named channel per (channel type,
handle type, handle) triple
* Aliasing is allowed to change the unique identifier
* CONNECTION_ALIAS_FLAG_USER_SET doesn't apply to channel-specific
handles
and minor spec improvements:
* RENAMED is a new group membership change reason
* the HTML spec contains more hyperlinks
and lots of old and redundant code has been removed. In particular, the
language-specific code generation tools can now be found in the source
repositories for their respective libraries (telepathy-glib,
telepathy-python and libtelepathy) - see tools/README for details.

tagged telepathy-spec 0.15.3
Mon Apr 30 14:41:40 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* Increment version to 0.15.3
M ./spec/all.xml -1 +1
Mon Apr 30 14:37:03 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* Redefine the meaning of CONNECTION_ALIAS_FLAG_USER_SET so it doesn't apply to channel-specific handles, and doesn't exclude the possibility that aliases can be set by the remote contact too.
The former is for future improvement to Gabble, and the latter matches its
current behaviour.
M ./spec/Connection_Interface_Aliasing.xml -4 +13
Mon Apr 30 14:32:01 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* Assert that aliases should be used as the displayed name
M ./spec/Connection_Interface_Aliasing.xml +3
Mon Apr 30 14:26:53 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* Don't say that the aliasing interface can't change unique identifier - we've concluded that on IRC, it probably should
M ./spec/Connection_Interface_Aliasing.xml -4 +3
Thu Apr 26 17:15:22 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* Renaming: don't imply that the channel necessarily goes away when its contact has been renamed away
M ./spec/Connection_Interface_Renaming.xml -8 +9
Thu Apr 26 17:13:22 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* Channel: specify the invariant that there can be no more than one named channel per (channel type, handle type, handle)
M ./spec/Channel.xml -6 +11
Thu Apr 26 10:13:36 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* Try again to specify Renaming, following much discussion.
This time, channels that have a handle do not follow the rename (clients are
responsible for migrating to a new channel), and groups are specified to emit
MembersChanged after the Renamed signal.
M ./spec/Connection_Interface_Renaming.xml -2 +26
Thu Apr 26 10:08:41 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* Specify that channel-specific handles and general-purpose handles must be disjoint sets
M ./spec/Channel_Interface_Group.xml -1 +9
Mon Apr 23 15:53:26 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* Bump version to 0.15.2.1, 0.15.2 was quite a while ago
M ./spec/all.xml -1 +1
Mon Apr 23 15:53:10 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* Update Rob Taylor's email address in AUTHORS

Mon Apr 23 11:13:13 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* all.xml: Try to XInclude extra file extensions.xml, so we can have non-spec extensions in telepathy-glib etc.; if it's absent, treat it as if empty

M ./tools/c-interfaces-generator.xsl -3 +30
Mon Apr 9 12:50:07 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* In RequestRename, say nothing about the validity of the handles - that's up to the spec for GetSelfHandle and Renaming. However, do specify that the CM might have to normalize the new identifier.
M ./spec/Connection_Interface_Renaming.xml -5 +7
Mon Apr 9 12:46:12 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
* Specify that HoldHandles is idempotent, matching current CM behaviour (we're not doing distributed refcounting - if clients want refcounting they should implement it themselves)
M ./spec/Connection.xml -4 +11
Mon Apr 9 12:45:03 BST 2007 Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk>
