Bug description:
[ Description ]
Facebook messenger and Windows Live messenger don't work any more
because Facebook & Microsoft removed third-party support for them.
[ Fix & QA ]
Stop supporting IM accounts for these clients. For both creation &
continued use.
Verify that if you add a WLM or FB account in online accounts, empathy
doesn't try to connect to it.
account-plugins-windows-live shouldn't be pulled in by default any
more (check a trusty daily which is built with proposed).
[ Regression potential ]
This is a regression, in that we stop supporting some account types.
We don't have a choice about this.
[ Original description ]
The march towards a future of silos carries on.
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/chat - the XMPP gateway for
Facebook will shut down on April 30.
http://ismsndeadyet.com/ - Microsoft are removing MSN endpoints.
I guess we need to correspondingly remove IM support for these
services & SRU it back.
