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 "Nintendo or Zappa" release.

Empathy now uses the TpAccount API and so depends on telepathy-glib 0.9.0,
but we strongly advise you to use the latest telepathy-glib release.

This release brings support for a subset of IRC commands such as "/join".
Empathy is also now able to join password protected chat rooms; note that
this doesn't work with IRC channels at the moment because of a telepathy-idle
bug (fd.o #25039).

We also worked on improving error reporting to users. The contact list will now
display a new info bar when an account is disconnected and the audio/video UI
should give better feedback if an error occurs.
