+GObject Introspection
+=====================
+
+telepathy-glib's high level API has experimental GObject-Introspection
+support.
+
+You can easily test it from the source directory by defining this environment
+variable:

+  export GI_TYPELIB_PATH
+
+In Python you can access the API using;
+  from gi.repository import TelepathyGLib
