Telepathy is a DBus system service for which empathy is a client
frontend for chats. The idea is to make amarok the same, but for
exchanging playlist information. You'll need to read up on Telepathy
architecture and to integrate it in amarok you should use
Telepathy-qt4: http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/wiki/Telepathy-Qt4
To integrate it in the Amarok architecture you'll need to create a
plugin containing at least a PlaylistProvider, a TrackProvider a
Playlist sub-class and Meta classes. First get an idea of the
Telepathy side though, it's far more important for this project.
