I'm not convinced any of these represent new issues for pidgin- 
facebook. Are you? Only one mentions a change from previous... And it  
reports as fixed the dropping message problem which David reports as  
new... Implying it existed before and this user no longer is seeing  
it. I think ;)

Is this a regression?

The real problem here is the basic question: Is somebody interested in  
taking them?

This is not a regression. 1.3.3 release candidate is not the  
appropriate time to address it.

Cheers,
