Replacing Pidgin with Empathy
I'm a bit wary of replacing Pidgin with Empathy. Some notes: Further references:
 * Empathy/Telepathy do not natively support AIM or Yahoo.
 * AIM/Yahoo support requires and . Do we plan on marking these packages as default?
 * Empathy cannot currently send/receive files. Will this be fixed by release time?
 * No, it's planned for Gnome-2.6 - Brian
