2016-08-30 15:00 <kyamashita> Hello all! Visitor from #guix here.
2016-08-30 15:01 <kyamashita> For clarity's sake, the latest 
stable 
                              version of telepathy-idle is 0.2.0, 
                              yes?
2016-08-30 15:02 <kyamashita> I would assume that the 0.99.x 
                              versions are unstable or development 
                              versions.
2016-08-30 15:10 <sjoerd> Indeed

We're in the clear! :-)
