<br><br>You should use the "distributed D-Bus" mode of Telepathy Tubes; this will<br>allow it to work in any environment where chat works, in a transparent<br>way. My colleague Morgan Collett (morgs on <a href="http://irc.freenode.net">
irc.freenode.net</a> #sugar) is working<br>on a Tubes "hello world" example which you'll be able to use as a reference,<br>and on improved client-side API so Tubes are easier to use.<br><br>We plan to make integrity transparent - communication with the server is
<br>currently cleartext but will be SSL/TLS later, while communication<br>across the mesh network is currently cleartext but will later be<br>authenticated and possibly signed. The signing will be done<br>with the "owner key" (a DSA keypair) which is generated when you first
<br>use a new OLPC.<br><br>If you want to provide integrity guarantees before we officially support<br>this, you could generate your own signatures at the application level<br>and send them along with your messages - binary blobs (in the form of byte
<br>arrays, signature 'ay') are fully supported by D-Bus, and hence by Tubes.<br><br>Regards,<br> Simon<br>--<br>Simon McVittie, Collabora Ltd.: <a href="http://www.collabora.co.uk/">http://www.collabora.co.uk/
