Description Philip Withnall 2010-08-19 18:11:08 UTC 
As much of the avatar handling machinery in Empathy as possible should be moved to libfolks. For example, a desktop-wide cache of Personas' avatars should be used instead of a cache specific to Empathy.

Hopefully, EmpathyAvatar can be destroyed as a result of this.

Comment 2 Travis Reitter 2011-08-23 16:16:51 UTC 
Now that we've got the caching and better Avatar API in place, shouldn't this just be changed to an Empathy bug?
Comment 3 Philip Withnall 2011-08-23 19:45:11 UTC 
Sweet. That means somebody else will come along and fix it, right?
