Description Omer Akram 2010-06-15 22:06:23 UTC 
"""
There's a lot of user info in ICQ: nickname, real name, gender, birthdate, spoken languages and so on. In Empathy, contact information dialog has only ICQ number and nickname.

This wouldn't disturb me mostly, but when I set up Empathy to my ICQ account, half of my contact list is displayed as just ICQ numbers, not even nicknames. I have no idea who is who there.

It would be nice to get nicknames to be displayed somehow first, because that's what Pidgin does, and because there's no way to use Empathy until it's done. And second, it would be even better to enhance Contact Information dialog a little bit. It would help, for example, when one decides whether to approve authorization request."""

cassidy: "telepathy-haze should get these information from ICQ contacts and expose them using ContactInfo."

Comment 1 Will Thompson 2010-06-16 03:04:40 UTC 
The ICQ numbers not nicknames stuff is covered by bug 25157; also, retitling, since the lack of ContactInfo doesn't just affect ICQ.
