telepathy-qt4 is currently targeted at Telepathy clients; there is no 
generated code or helper API to aid in writing connection managers. Not 
to say that you can't do it, but you'd have to implement the D-Bus API 
directly using QtDBus.

C with telepathy-glib, and Python with telepathy-python (to a lesser 
extent), have both generated and hand-written code to help you implement 
connection managers. Most CMs are implemented using the former.

What protocol are you implementing a CM for?
