Interpreting "Away" as "Offline" on the other hand is a little harsh and doesn't solve the problem at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/725800 Title: Empathy away doesn't equate to Facebook's idle -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
