What is it?
===========
Empathy is a messaging program which supports text, voice, and video chat and file transfers over many different protocols. Empathy uses Telepathy for protocol support and has an user interface based on Gossip. Empathy is the default chat client in current versions of GNOME, making it easier for other GNOME applications to integrate collaboration functionality using Telepathy.

What's New?
===========
The "No more 2.28 blockers \o/" release.

This release in the stable 2.28 branch fixes various crashes and
a bug making the desktop hang while Empathy has a menu open.
It also solves a potential security issue by ensuring that messages are
always escaped before being displayed in Webkit (#599640).

We strongly recommend that all distributions upgrade to this version.
