Abstract

See full text

Methods and apparatus for aggregating and distributing contact information for a user with multiple user identifiers in a plurality of domains. In one embodiment a set of user identifiers corresponding to a first user includes a first user identifier corresponding to a first domain and a second user identifier corresponding to a second domain. A request is made using the first user identifier for contacts associated in the first domain with the first user identifier and a request is made using the second user identifier, for contacts associated in the second domain with the second user identifier. An aggregated contact list corresponding to the first user is generated from a first contact list received from the first domain and from a second contact list received from the second domain. In some embodiments the aggregated contact list and associated user presence information is distributed to the first and second domains.
