I request not to replace pidgin with empathy for following main reasons: 1. I believe empathy is relatively young project compared to pidgin and has not received enough testing. I feel that the testing in alpha/beta cycle will not be enough as compared to when people can try empathy in all it's glory in a stable release. When I say 'all it's glory' I mean everything including the VoIP features. 2. There are too many extensions out there for pidgin which is not yet the case for empathy. This is something similar to how firefox vs epiphany situation is. This is my personal opinion and I am not sure how many agree with it. But I hope it will be given a thought while making decision.
