Not sure if this is the place to post this, but here goes:

I've been checking out my Fiesty Live CD, but want to be able to use my webcam on my MSN protocol. What is the best/polished app to use? I like GAIM but it doesn't support webcams :(

Fromt the old Pidgin FAQ at www.pidgin.im/faq.php#vv (no longer exists)

Will you support features such as voice chat, internet phones, or video chat?
We hope to add voice and video support in Pidgin 3.0.0. We don't have a timeline for when this will be finished. Voice and video is a very time intensive feature, and many of the core group of Pidgin developers are very busy.

So keep your fingers crossed for Pidgin 3.0.0 whenever that's released, but don't hold your breath because humans need oxygen.

This is the current existance of the above link: http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/vv
And there's really nothing there at all. lol
