Description Juan Francisco Cantero Hurtado 2010-04-25 15:35:27 UTC 
Pidgin has three fields in the information of each contact that empathy hasn't and I really need.

- "Last seen: 5 minutes" http://juanfra.info/empathy/e.jpg
- The Status in each "Resource" http://juanfra.info/empathy/n.jpg , Away in Android and Available in Empathy.
- "Subscription: Both". Is very useful for new contacts.

If is too many information for the contact list you can use the window "Properties" for this.

Hi. I've seen in the news file of the version 2.91.3 the support for to show the android clients with a icon. I needed the field "Resource" for that and the change is sufficient for me. Thanks a lot :) .

I still need the field "Last seen". I think telepathy could to write the date in a file (using telepathy-logger maybe?) when a contact go to offline. Empathy could read the file and show the date or noting when this information is unavailable. "Last seen: 10/10/2010" is perfect, I only need the date not the time.

The field "Subscription" is useful but the least important.
