Individual offers of $50 on a bug report are great, but we talked of
having a Kickstarter. I bet in the current climate we could raise
thousands.
Who is capable of taking a quarter million dollars, or 120k, or 50k,
or 10k, and doing this?
It happens for other crap. Why not for this awesome?

Bug description:
Binary package hint: empathy
Hello,
I just tried empathy (the Intrepid version) and it looked very solid and
stable. There were a few minor things that could be improved (e.g.
automatically resizing the contact list), but that is not the topic here.
The reason why I won't switch to empathy from pidgin is the missing OTR
support (http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ ). This is a really important feature
because no one should read your messages.
There were others with the same idea (links at the bottom).
Would be so great if it could support that important encryption standard.
Thanks for helping out!
