[Telepathy] Facebook Chat after Facebook API 1.0 deprecation

[Martin Klapetek]

Hey guys,

I was just wondering if you have any plans for Facebook Chat integration
after their API 1.0 is deprecated in April 2015[1], which will effectively
kill Facebook Chat in 3rd party apps like Telepathy.

In KDE we had this idea of writing a special connection manager and talking
to Facebook's Messages API directly, however since the introduction of v2.0
of the API, there is no way to retrieve a full Facebook friends list; it
will return only other people also using the same app[2], which makes it
pretty much useless.

Are there any upstream plans for Facebook Chat?
