[Bug 89431] Re: Enable voip (audio/video talk) support in empathy

Alot of people are frustrated with the lack of a working jingle-capable
XMPP client in release versions of ubuntu.

What's the near-term direction for IM on Ubuntu? Is the Ubuntu team
planning to replace the default clients gaim/kopete with telepathy in an
upcoming release? If so, is empathy the officially-blessed telepathy-
based client for gnome which will replace gaim?

How can someone like myself get involved upstream?

I would like to help if possible since it is clear that devs/maintainers
are spread rather thin in the RT comms area right now (big ideas, but
too many projects going at once)

If there is some jingle-capable client for which the support is somewhat
stable upstream (kopete, empathy, or other) perhaps we could build some
alternative debs for gutsy.

I know all the devs are super-busy,  and this is free software, but to
me no jingle = ubuntu broken.
