Re: GNOME Chat and the future of instant messaging in gnome

Empathy still works but it still uses clutter-gst2 and webkit1. It
doesn't seem to be much under development which is somewhat sad.

Pidgin's gtk3 branch uses webkit1 since webkit2gtk doesn't compile on
Windows.

Perhaps something will change in the future though. It feels as
application development under Linux is driven more by developer
interest so there is still hope if interest picks up.
