Galago is a desktop presence framework, designed to transmit presence
|
||
|
|
information between programs. To put it in simpler terms, it takes
|
||
|
|
information on who is online and their away/idle states from an instant
|
||
|
|
messenger (such as gaim) or other similar programs and lets other
|
||
|
|
programs (such as Ximian's Evolution) to make use of it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The advantage of such a framework is that it brings your programs closer
|
||
|
|
together. When you receive an e-mail from a friend who is in your buddy
|
||
|
|
list, you'll be able to immediately tell their online status, for
|
||
|
|
example.
