I have to disagree. Although I fully understand the fact that no developer is
willing to take up that task, security should be a priority for all users. For
me security is part of the basis. A chat client without encryption I do not
consider to be functional. I dont chat with people sho do not use encryption. I
think Telepathy is more than stable, as it is already part of GNOME and Empathy
is going to be the default chat client for Ubuntu 9.10. I would have It is also
true, that OTR is broken by design. but it works and I dont know of any client
which provides a sane implementation of a chat encryption bedides the ones
using OTR.

So again its only up to current and upcoming developers to decide if they are
going to implement OTR, but I consider it much more important than providing a
lot of chat protocols.
