 Fair enough, but when a patch has already been written for you, what's the
 hold up?

 I've thought about switching to something else, but in my situation I've
 got limited options. My workplace uses Lotus Notes Sametime (which I
 wholeheartedly detest), but I use XMPP for personal communications.  I
 need a tool that does both, and pidgin does.

 share your thoughts. The community can help.
 Agreed - if you need alpha/beta testers, you know where you can find
 willing & eager participants.

 DEVS - I don't want to sound completely ungrateful for what really is a
 great app, we do honestly appreciate all the hard work you have put into
 this project, but is there something holding up the inclusion of this
 patch for carbons?
