    453 === Why does Pidgin not support Tlen.pl, Paltalk, !NateOn, MS LCS, Skype, Xfire, Teamspeak, Facebook Chat, Netsoul, Rediffbol, !CyanChat, WinMX, MXit or any other protocol? ===
    454 It is a lot of work to implement and maintain support for an additional protocol. Since Pidgin developers have just limited time, they can only support a limited number of protocols. If you are willing and able to implement and maintain a protocol that you're using, you're welcome to do so.

     458It is a lot of work to implement and maintain support for an additional protocol. As Pidgin developers are volunteers who work for Pidgin during their spare time, they have only limited time which means that they can only support a limited number of protocols. If you are willing and able to implement and maintain a protocol that you're using, you're welcome to do so.

    458462'''Facebook Chat:''' Facebook is working on exposing an XMPP interface to the world. (See: [http://developers.facebook.com/news.php?blog=1&story=110] and http://bugs.developers.facebook.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3152) When that's done, Pidgin will support Facebook Chat just like any other XMPP service. There is also a [ThirdPartyPlugins#AdditionalProtocols plugin for Facebook].
