What lack of clarity do you observe?

  Integrating Cerebro into Telepathy framework
  --------------------------------------------

  We've spoken to Polychronis about how Cerebro works, and attended his
  presentation last week, and now have a better understanding of the
  functions provided by Cerebro, and how it could be best integrated
  into Telepathy framework for use by the presence service, Sugar and
  activities. We propose to continue work on the “telepathy-cerebro”
  connection manager which implements the Telepathy API by using the
  communications provided by Cerebro, so that we can make its
  functionality available to the existing software on the XOs without
  modification, and allow observations of the behaviour and reliability
  of Cerebro in our test environments.
