In both cases in my testing so far video crashes, btw. #2 is the only actually interesting reason for me (and possibly desktop sharing, which is related). But I still wonder if they could have worked with pidgin developers more. They are very active upstream and provide a much more user oriented website (as well as Windows and Mac support so easier to switch). Maybe make telepathy a plugin for pidgin instead of a whole new app? Pidgin however is not being demoted from Main and is still going to be a fully supported app. Think of it more as replacing Ekiga. The app itself is more user friendly. -Bryan
