That's OK, but only if MANUAL specifically means "do not initiate *or accept* OTR sessions without user input". (In reply to comment #70) > I would consider this non-blocker future enhancement.

They have a nasty habit of becoming de facto public APIs as soon as you commit them (and we only recently managed to get rid of Renaming being a private API, despite it not having changed for 5 years). We have API versioning now, so if it's good enough to merge, it's good enough for the spec. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296867 Title: empathy needs to support OTR encryption Status in Chat app, and Telepathy user interface: Confirmed Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Invalid Status in Telepathy framework - library: Confirmed Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “libtelepathy” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “empathy” package in Fedora: Won't Fix Bug description: Binary package hint: empathy Hello, I just tried empathy (the Intrepid version) and it looked very solid and stable. There were a few minor things that could be improved (e.g. automatically resizing the contact list), but that is not the topic here. The reason why I won't switch to empathy from pidgin is the missing OTR support (http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ ). This is a really important feature because no one should read your messages. There were others with the same idea (links at the bottom). Would be so great if it could support that important encryption standard. Thanks for helping out!
