[Telepathy] Telepathy C#/.NET bindings

[Danielle Madeley]

Hi Daniel,

That's not actually the preferred way to set presence. The preferred way
is to set the RequestedPresence via Mission Control and let Mission
Control talk to the CMs. See
http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/doc/book/sect.accounts.presence.html

Ultimately, maintaining a set of high-level bindings is a lot of work.
We found that all bindings except tp-glib and tp-qt4 were falling
behind. The way we're now moving forward is to use gobject-introspection
where possible to create wrappers for telepathy-glib. This is already
possible in Javascript and Python (GNOME Shell's Telepathy integration
is written this way). So you might find it faster to get Mono bindings
by getting involved with g-i on Mono and the introspection of tp-glib.

Best Regards,
--danni
