    <description><![CDATA[I just know that google put video voice capability to the gtalk. Please hurry to port it to the pidgin. It would be one more option (wide used) of video and voice chat for we use with our friends no linux users.<br /><br />sorry for my English <br />

  <description><![CDATA[Yeah, this is slowly becoming a joke. <br /><br />Google not only released a jabber client from scratch with AV faster, but also wrote the JEP/specs, and even now added support for the Jingle JEP via HTTP. <br /><br />We haven't accomplished a single one of these things thus far. Even Apple added AV support for Jabber before us.<br /><br /><br />People who vote for this may also want <a href="http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/11685/">Idea #11685: Add video support to Jabber MSN messenger and other Transports</a>, which would add AV support to every messenging protocol if they support Jingle/transports and a small extension. <br /><br />+1]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Well apparently Coccinella and Empathy support Jingle.<br />We need Jingle support in Pidgin.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[I don't know why webcam support is being such a low priority by pidgin devs.  It's very embarrassing to tell my Gmail friends I can't send them files and my MSN friends my client doesn't support webcam or voice.  This only contributes to the widely spread idea that Linux is feature-poor.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Put some more devs into this: http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/GSoC2008/VoiceAndVideo<br /><br />This is especially important as this program is the face of Ubuntu Linux - the current situation creates a word of mouth narrative of "my employee can't get files transferred to him through GChat, because he uses Ubuntu Linux" - or, even worse, "my boyfriend can't see video on MSN chats, because he uses Ubuntu Linux."]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Actually asaz989, the problem is that Pidgin needs support for every protocol in a generic way, thats probably the problem. <br /><br />By doing it my way, support is simple and adds AV support to any other protocol (AV converters are needed on the transports). But in the long run, my way is the most generic way of solving it, and allows a true one-login, into any account, with AV, with simple code]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[AndrewLuecke: Yes, but Google is a billion dollar corporation, they can put as much resources as they want into a project. Most Linux IM developers are working voluntarily.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Pidgin or Empathy, just get it working someone, it's obvious google is unwilling to do it and it's possible for us to do it as google has clearly stated in the release message of how open the technologies are that they used to create it (too bad it doesn't work on any open os).]]></description>
