libfolks 0.5.2 — If You're Into It
========================================================================
Libfolks pulls together contacts from any number of accounts supported
by the libfolks backends. This release includes a number of backends,
including Telepathy, libsocialweb, Tracker, and a simple key-file
backend. We would like to include additional backends (especially
evolution-data-server), so let us know if we can help!
The 0.5.x series is not API or ABI stable, so please proceed with
caution (or develop against the stable 0.4.x series).
See the NEWS file for details on every break we make. In future
releases, we will have example programs that will be kept up-to-date
with the latest API as well.
For more information, see the Folks wiki page:
