I'm a bit confused about the desired outcome of this proposal. From the discussion, it seems to be an attempt to get more developers looking at a new messaging framework with the potential to do all sorts of weird and wonderful things. If so, then replacing Pidgin as the default IM client seems like a bad plan - I would expect devs to already have a favourite IM client, which they'll install unless they have a compelling reason to switch. On the other hand, I'd expect newbies to use the default because they don't know they have a choice. That would lead to a small developer base supporting a lot of users submitting bug reports about making Empathy a better IM client, which would take developer time away from being creative.
Could you give some examples of existing Ubuntu applications that would benefit from integrating (lib)empathy? - Andrew -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
