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://
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!

Yeah, encryption is a must for me, too. This the only reason using Pidgin instead of telepathy for me.
