Tried this out with a friend last night. I'm disappointed so far, even
given this is an alpha. Maybe I'm using the wrong client (Venom) but I
don't see any way to do video or voice chat. I'm keeping it to send
files encrypted as I'm not sure if Pidgin's OTR encrypts file transfers
as well (guessing not) as well as keep testing it to try and find bugs.
