+==== Does Pidgin support Service Discovery or Transports? ====
+
+Service discovery and transport ''registration'' are not supported yet.
+
+However, ''using'' transports with Pidgin is possible, required that your transport does either not require registration or is registered with using another client.
+
+Note that Pidgin doesn't support transport de-registration either, i.e. this will also require using another client.
+
+If you want to use a protocol that is supported by Pidgin natively, it is recommended to use Pidgin's own implementation rather than a Jabber transport.
