telepathy-haze does support:
 * contact statuses / avatars
 * message delivery / reception
 * notification about your contact writing to you
That's basically all that's needed to use the protocol for text communication.

However it doesn't support:
 * buddy list saving
 * buddy list export (to file / server)
 * buddy list importing (from file / server)
 * file transfer
Probably more.

I don't agree with the tone of this bug report, however, implementation
of Gadu Gadu in telepathy-haze does not allow for convenient usage
mostly due to necessity of adding all your friends ID numbers every time
you close/open IM.

Title:
  Gadu Gadu situation

Status in “telepathy-haze” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: telepathy-haze

  I'll be honest with you. Current implementation of Gadu Gadu protocol
  in telepathy-haze is worthless. Why don't you substitute it with
  working solution? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/telepathy-
  sunshine

  This lack of working implementation of Gadu Gadu in default Ubuntu is
  show stopper for people in Poland. How can I suggest the new OS for
  them, when such fundamental thing - their favorite IM protocol - is
  not working? Yea, I know it can transport messages, but without
  contacts support it doesn't matter.

  Just kick the GG out of telepathy-haze and pull telepathy-sunshine
  into dependencies of empathy. I hope this can be done in Natty cycle.
  Really, in Poland lack of proper GG support destroys value of Ubuntu
  for new users. Just do it, and the situation will change greatly!
