What makes you think it is more stable?

There are many problems and bugs with Kopete not least it doesn't work for modern IM uses like GTalk, Facebook, Bonjour.

Kopete is unmaintained so it's problems won't go away, KDE Telepathy is and has active upstreams so we can poke them at problems we find.

Currently I'm minded to put kde-telepathy on the CD before feature freeze with the option to take it out if we find major problems before releasae.
