Empathy is basically a graphical front end for the telepathy communications [1] stack which is made up of a number of components which in turn provide XMPP/link-local/pidgin frontend etc. Is the plan to just reimplement the front end UX and keep the backends and hence not have to reimplement a chunk of the various integration points or to reimplement the while lot, presumably there could be OTR/Telegram integrated with that stack?
