(In reply to comment #30) > It has been two years and there hasn't been an update on this.
Nothing to highlight here. Many bug reports here have not ever seen a comment for more than two years. "Open Source" is not "the developers must do my bidding." Everyone wants to help, but no one else has any obligation to fix the bugs you want fixed. Therefore, nobody should act as if you expect someone to fix a bug by a particular date or release. Contributing patches normally helps, "I want this too!" comments not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296867 Title: empathy needs to support OTR encryption Status in Chat app, and Telepathy user interface: Confirmed Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Invalid Status in Telepathy framework - library: Confirmed Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “libtelepathy” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “empathy” package in Fedora: Won't Fix 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!
