 Hi,
 since I use Pidgin, I wonder why it says "Ne pas déranger" ("Do not
 disturb" in english) instead of "Occupé" ("Busy" in english) in the
 statutes of pidgin ...

 This does not mean the same thing. Status "away" which is translated,
 indicates our state that we are not there, you can send us messages, but
 we can not answer because we are not there. Status "do not disturb"
 indicates what our contacts need to do is to say it should not send us
 messages. And not our actual status that allows contacts to know that we
 will not respond because we are before our computer, probably doing
 something more important to discuss online, but we're here.

 So, yes, if my status is "busy" I probably would not want to be disturbed,
 but the fact that I do not want to be disturbed is not a status ...

 So ^^ all this text just for say that the good translation for "busy" in
 french, is "occupé" :p

 It would be nice if this can be fixed, please... :-)

 Good afternoon :-)
