There seems to be some confusion here.  Oracle IT support have said they 
don't support Pidgin, but that doesn't mean that it isn't the 
recommended client for their internal IM system.  There are just too 
many Oracle employees failing to use it for it not to have been 
recommended by someone in Oracle.  My response was saying, if IT don't 
support it, who recommended it, as they presumably have to support it.

(On the other hand, I think it was eventually concluded that this 
particular case was an Oracle employee trying to use Pidgin for personal 
use.)


The standard response to Oracle employees is now as follows:

"Try this Oracle knowledge base article:

     http://my.oracle.com/site/git/1591/index.htm

You must be logged into the Oracle VPN to view it."

I presume that no-one on this list actually knows what is in that article.
