Subject: Re: [maemo-leste] Maemo-Leste Digest, Vol 10, Issue 2
Hello,

I think is better to make a port of empathy to hildonize it.

It is the fast way to do te app.

After this step we can make integration with gnome contact + empathy.

I need to study the telepathy backend.

Another thing to do is upgrade hildon to render better standard linux
gtk app in a mobile fashion. In this way may be easy to integrate
Linux Desktop app environment in the phone.
