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?
===========
Loads of meta-contacts related bugs have been fixed. There are still
issues but meta-contacts should be now more usable.

Thanks to Cosimo Cecchi, Empathy is now able to ask user to manually approve
untrusted TLS certificates. Note that you'll need telepathy-gabble 0.9.17 or
newer to use this feature.

The IRC account widget has been improved and it is now possible to create IRC
accounts using the assistant.

Dependencies:

 • folks ≥ 0.1.15
 • gnutls ≥ 2.8.5
 • nautilus-sendto ≥ 2.31.7 (optional)
