"priority" is the priority that we, the current Telepathy developers, give to
implementing OTR. If it's a high priority for *you*, you're welcome to
implement it, or hire someone to implement it; but it's not a high priority for
*us*, and so it stays priority=low in Bugzilla.

I think helping the XMPP Standards people to provide end-to-end encryption
(implementing <http://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/xtls.html> or something like
it, and advancing it to Recommended status) is a much better use of developer
time; it'll result in a better protocol, with a well-defined security model,
that does not conflict with the protocol's normal extensibility mechanisms.
