empathy

DesktopLinux.com: "The GNOME project has released a major upgrade of its desktop environment that adds an instant messaging (IM) client."

Open Computer: "Listed on the roadmap to Gnome 2.24 is the integration with Empathy, a multi-protocol IM client.

This integration could be a sign of a replacement for Pidgin and Ekiga with one single SIP and multi-protocol IM application."

I' Been to Ubuntu: "Although I've said it before, this next part bears repeating. The inclusion of Empathy (and Telepathy) into Gnome is huge.

Why? Well, just look at the history of GStreamer."
