Your first link did not work. We may not need a direct
connection, but with no sdk I do not think anything can be done
to link keychat to the messengers that most people use (msn,
yahoo, or aim).
Have a great day,
Alex

For the computer nerds on the list, I offer two links related
XMPP that
might please some people here.
Blog about how to setup an XMPP server to link you to the AIM,
MSN, and
YAHOO IM networks.

o-and-other-contacts-over-google-talk-289097.php
Google code page for the module that allows connecting to AIM via
the XMPP
server.

In short, you don't need an AIM client or MSN client to talk to
friends on
those networks, just a server to do the translating.

XMPP (Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol) is a protocol
based on
Extensible Markup Language (XML) and intended for instant
messaging (IM) and
online presence detection. It functions between or among
servers, and
facilitates near-real-time operation. The protocol may
eventually allow
Internet users to send instant messages to anyone else on the
Internet,
regardless of differences in operating systems and browsers.
XMPP is
sometimes called the Jabber protocol, but this is a technical
misnomer.
Jabber, an IM application similar to ICQ (I Seek You) and
others, is based
on XMPP, but there are many applications besides Jabber that are
supported
by XMPP. The IEEE XMPP working group, a consortium of engineers
and
programmers, is adapting XMPP for use as an Internet Engineering
Task Force
(IETF) technology. In addition, the Messaging and Presence
Interoperability
Consortium (MPIC) is considering XMPP as an important
interoperability
technology. Eventually, XMPP is expected to support IM
applications with
authentication, access control, a high measure of privacy,
hop-by-hop
encryption, end-to-end encryption, and compatibility with other
protocols.
IBM and Microsoft are working on a similar standard called SIP
for Instant
Messaging and Presence Leveraging Extensions (SIMPLE) based on
Session
Initiation Protocol (SIP).

My thoughts on this. I am not happy that Hw are not going the
hole way,
and are not implementing windows live (Formally called windows
live) into ks
8.0, and think it is a waste of time integrating it at all. By
the sound of
things, not many of us have google talk or i-google. Enjoy the
info.
Cheers, Blake.
