While I think that you are correct, that we should transition to Empathy as the default IM sometime in the next couple of releases, a Launchpad bug isn't really the right forum for suggesting such a change.
The way to proceed here would be to send a mail to the ubuntu-devel- discuss (or possibly ubuntu-devel) mailing list with a comprehensive list of reasons why Empathy should become the default IM client. Note that arguments about the Telepathy framework being better aren't likely to be persuasive on their own - we'll want to know what Empathy *does* that Pidgin doesn't. ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: New => Invalid -- Replace Pidgin with Empathy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/253765 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
