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 "6 amp limitation" release.

Empathy now supports marking contacts as favourite. This feature has to be
turned on by passing --enable-favourite-contacts during configure and depends
on the telepathy-logger. We discourage distributions shipping GNOME from
enabling this feature for now. It will be enabled by default in 2.31.x.

Empathy no longer removes a manually-set Away status when the screen is unlocked.
It is now able to invite contacts to MSN multi-user chats if you have
telepathy-butterfly 0.5.6 installed.
