Description Raul Gutierrez Segales 2011-09-07 10:21:16 UTC 
Use case: in libfolks, where we have a backend for libsocialweb, we want to be able to have each PersonaStore (that represents a given Social Service) reach quiescence once the initial Contacts set has been retrieved. In order to be able to do this, we'd need something like get_initial_contacts_count_async () to know what to expect and when we'd reach quiescence. Such method could throw an error like InitialCountUnknown if the Social Service doesn't provide such property.

Do you know if the services that we support provide a count of the numbers of friends in advance of providing the data?
Comment 2 André Klapper 2018-08-19 09:15:06 UTC 
libsocialweb is not under active development anymore and saw its last non-cosmetic code changes in 2013. Its codebase has been archived:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/libsocialweb/commits/master

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect
reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project
to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the
responsibility for active development again.
