Do you happen to know where to look for info on sending IMS through dbus? I tried searching, but I am not really sure what I am looking for.
Thanks.

Any interest in making a account plugin similar to tor or vicar has done? Just something that you can configure, and then use to directly dial using google voice (an additional link would appear under each contact that would say something like "call using qgvdial")? This would be an awesome feature, and there is plenty of examples of people that have done this before, so it shouldn't be too difficult.

No plans as yet - I'm not ready to create a full connection manager like TOR. I don't know if vicar has a short cut to getting a "call with vicar" button there, but if you know that there is a shortcut, I can look into it.
Why isn't TOR good enough btw? It uses a stable dbus standard which can be accessed by anyone who needs to send messages(IMs) or make calls.

Vicar recently added a shortcut to make calls using a "call with vicar" button. See the screen shots at the end of the first post here:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=52374
I might take a shot at making an account plugin that can be used to direct dial directly from a button when you click on a contact (like I described above). What is the best way to do this? Should I make it separate from qgvdial, part of qgvdial, call qgvdial using dbus commands, or something else? What is the policy on using code from other projects in something I write?

I've used this feature - what I was trying to do was find out if you knew how vicar does it
You can use my code as long as you respect its license: LGPL. The usual disclaimers apply: I'm not responsible if using my code kills your cat or makes you swear at random people or anything else.
I also offer the following: Tell me how to do that account plugin and I'll do it. Researching multiple things at the same time is time-consuming and very tiresome - and I'm already neck deep in trying to understand how to make a QtMobility contact manager engine using the Google Contacts API.
Please note that if your answer is "write a telepathy connection manager" then sorry, I've already given up on that.

The phone selection in the settings menu resets for me whenever the program updates (when it does its periodic update/login thing every day or so).

Phone selection reset is a known issue. That selector is from the old design and will need a few modifications before I can start saving it's state. But thanks for showing me that someone is actually using that feature - I was going to drop it altogether.
btw: I looked at the vicar code. He's written a telepathy connection manager. By my own statement, I had said that I won't be doing that.
However, I may eat my own words and do it because vicar is entirely QT and C++ - this makes my job so much simpler than having to wade through the telepathy specifications and mapping them to the QT telepathy helper classes.
Don't get your hopes high yet - I've yet to find enough time to anything else.
Thanks.
