 CoyIM is a new client for the XMPP protocol. It
 is built upon https://github.com/agl/xmpp-client and
 https://github.com/twstrike/otr3. It adds a graphical user interface and
 tries to be safe and secure by default. Our ambition is that it should
 be possible for even the most high-risk people on the planet to safely
 use CoyIM, without having to make any configuration changes.
 .
 To do this, we enable OTR by default, we default to use Tor and we will
 use the Tor Onion Service for a server if we know it, and also to use
 TLS and TLS certificates to verify the connection - no configuration
 necessary. The implementation is written in the Go language, to avoid many
 common types of vulnerabilities that come from using unsafe languages.
 Security warning CoyIM is currently under active development. There have
 been no security audits of the code, and you should currently not use
 this for anything sensitive.  Installation instructionsGUI version The GUI
 version requires GTK+ >= 3.6.16, which installation depends on your OS:
 .
