14 DAY TRIAL // Empathy, a messaging program that supports text, voice and video chat, and file transfers over many different protocols, is now at version 3.11.1.
Empathy 3.11.1 uses Telepathy for protocol and the user interface is based on Gossip. The Empathy messenger is also the default chat client in current versions of GNOME. This is just a development build which will evolve into the next iteration, 3.12.
The application supports all major protocols, including Google Talk (Jabber/XMPP), MSN, IRC, Salut, AIM, Facebook, Yahoo, and more.
Highlights of Empathy 3.11.1:
• GStreamer 1.0 is now mandatory and the support of the 0.10 version has been removed; • The nautilus-sendto plugin has been removed because the latest nautilus-sendo versions don't support plugins anymore; • libgee memory leak fixes have been implemented.
For a complete list of fixes and updated translations, you can check out the official changelog. Download Empathy 3.11.1 right now from Softpedia.
Remember that this is a development version and it should NOT be installed on production machines. It is intended for testing purposes only.
