This has indeed regressed. The problem is that telepathy-indicator

If this is a regression, then shouldn't a new bug report be opened

Experiencing the same behavior in Onereic x64 with Empathy 3.2.0.1.

This should definitely be an option. The purpose of INSTANT MESSAGING
is to allow folks to communicate in real-time. If I fail to notice a
chat message then it doesn't allow me to respond instantly.
The folks who are upset about intrusion shouldn't be concern if this
is provided as an option.

With all due respect, I missed a lot of chats or responds them too late because

in up coming Ubuntu
Anyone know if there is a PPA for the patched version.

I respond to most of my chats an average of 20-30 minutes late since I
started using Empathy in 10.04. This is unacceptable. There shouldn't
even be a debate about whether or not to include an option for this.

I loathe Pidgin's UI, but I'll likely be switching back on Lucid if

This is a *VERY SERIOUS* flaw in empathy.
A messaging system where users will often fail to see they have been
messaged is like a mobile phone that has a barely audible ring tone and
doesn't vibrate.
How would you feel if you missed 70% of the phone calls that you
received .. You'd throw the

True, it is not the ONLY way to get the user's attention.
However, the current one (a small icon on the corner of the screen) is
an *incredibly bad one*.
It's not just my opinion of the ones of all the people who's complained
on this issue in this bug, but it's been well documented here
This patch is only a partial solution to the problem but it's a start.
In its current form, the first message received for a new conversation

conversation to open a new tab instead of a new window) does not set the

Pēteris, sorry, but you're mistaken.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotificationDesignGuidelines has said the same
thing on this topic since I wrote it a year ago: When a notification is
not time-critical, and there is a relevant window to display it in,
present the notification as a banner or other text
If the windows are spawning behind other windows, how is it an
interference? They're not disrupting work flow as focus isn't being
stolen and they're not suddenly covering up any windows that are at the
front.
I've never found fault with the way that Pidgin and emesene deal with
conversation
Nurturing old behavioural models isn't exactly best practise.
Notification in right top corner - what else do you need? Do you really
will follow how many conversations and open windows you have under your
current active?

9 times out of 10 I miss the notification in the top right (in reference
to notify-osd), and I hardly ever notice the indicator-applet status,
usually because it never catches my eye to grab my attention.
I understand that nurturing old models isn't always the best, and that
it does seem
What's proposed here isn't simply nurturing an old model. Let me pose

not ring, but instead a small light turned on on the side of the
handset, don't you think you would miss calls?

I've found how Pidgin handles this issue very well for tabbed chat
windows.

notification about a new message and a new tab is added in the current chat
window. Then, I only have to press Ctrl-Tab to see to the next new
