Description Jean-François Fortin Tam 2009-12-31 20:08:14 UTC 
the /apps/empathy/ui/show_protocols key should be False by default.

Reasoning:
- It obstructs the status icons and adds visual clutter
- It's a power-user feature. They can easily enable it in the View menu.
- Mom and pop don't care about protocols: a contact is a contact.

Indeed. I assumed it was disabled by default; I miss that during the review. My bad.
Comment 2 Guillaume Desmottes 2010-01-06 15:15:02 UTC 
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
