Ok there are two solutions being discussed, so I'll summarise them<br>
both as I understand them.<br>
<br>
1) We make a dataengine that acts as a Text Channel handler/observer,<br>
we make a plasmoid that talks to telepathy directly.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>How would this work if you'd had a Text UI opened as well? Would the conversation be "copied" to the Text UI too?</div>

<br>
2) We mess about with the notifications that come out of my Text UI<br>
application, and try and make it feed information back to my<br>
application, (which then in turn talks to telepathy).<br>
<br>
There is no point in suggesting any changes to other projects until we<br>
decide on this.<br>
<br>
IIMO, solution 1 is better because:<br>
- it requires no plasma changes (that I can think of at present)<br>
- it doesn't rely on the Text UI being used for chats, we were trying<br>
to get away from monolithic apps.<br>
- KNotify is crap.<br>
- we can re-use this dataengine (or QML plugin?) to make a full chat<br>
widget plasmoid if someone wanted to.<br>
