Sure. Many of the public Jabber servers come with ICQ, MSN, AIM etc transports. It's not entirely as straight forward to use as direct connections to those networks in most Jabber clients, but I'm sure it could be done that way. Then again, while XMPP is quite nice for normal usage on the net, maybe we need a different protocol, namely one that is VERY bandwidth efficient (XML is not really famous for that, a binary protocol could potentially do much better) to keep GPRS costs low? _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
