Well that's not very constructive. :)
What specific problems are you having with it? How can they be reproduced? Please file appropriately detailed bugs on bugzilla.redhat.com so that we may attempt to fix these issues before F10-GA if they are truly present.
Fwiw, I made the choice to switch to Empathy for the F10 beta exactly for the purposes of testing it and trying to squash any last-minute bugs in it. Whether or not it will be the default in F10 proper is still being considered. Likely, it still needs a lot of work in various areas (see [1]), so we may end up reverting to Pidgin as the default IM client, then go with Empathy from F11 and onward as circumstances permit.

i'd have to agree,, Empathy needs more work on it before it becomes default IM.whereas Pidgin is near complete, but at the end of the day, its just as easy to do a
yum remove empathy yum install Pidgin
but what i dont understand is why create another IM when you can/could just improve Pidgin? surely there's Devs out there that could Help the Pidgin Devs out an improve it than Creating another Instant Messenger
