  <title>Status Types and Icons</title>

      <title><media type="image" mime="image/png" src="figures/available.png" its:translate="no"><span its:translate="yes">Available icon</span></media>
      <gui>Available</gui></title>
      <p>Use the <em>Available</em> status when you are at your computer and able
      to chat with your contacts.  You can set a custom message for this status.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <title><media type="image" mime="image/png" src="figures/busy.png" its:translate="no"><span its:translate="yes">Busy icon</span></media>
      <gui>Busy</gui></title>
      <p>Use the <em>Busy</em> status to let your contacts know that you don’t want
      to chat right now.  They can still contact you, for instance if they have something
      urgent they need to discuss.  By default, <app>Empathy</app> will not use notification
      bubbles and sounds when you are busy.  You can set a custom message for this status.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <title><media type="image" mime="image/png" src="figures/away.png" its:translate="no"><span its:translate="yes">Away icon</span></media>
      <gui>Away</gui></title>
      <p>Use the <em>Away</em> status when you are going away from your computer.
      <app>Empathy</app> automatically sets your status to Away if you do not use
      your computer for a while, or if your screensaver is on.  By default,
      <app>Empathy</app> will not use notification bubbles and sounds when you are
      away.  You can set a custom message for this status.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <title><media type="image" mime="image/png" src="figures/offline.png" its:translate="no"><span its:translate="yes">Offline icon</span></media>
      <gui>Invisible</gui></title>
      <p>When you set your status to <em>Invisible</em>, you will appear as offline
      to your contacts.  You will still be connected to your accounts, and you
      still see your contacts’ statuses and start conversations with them.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <title><media type="image" mime="image/png" src="figures/offline.png" its:translate="no"><span its:translate="yes">Offline icon</span></media>
      <gui>Offline</gui></title>
      <p>Setting your status to <em>Offline</em> disconnects you from all of
      your accounts.</p>
