Ad. 3 I would rather said that user will be notified by something like RSS.
This something is part of XMPP. It makes this solution real-time one.
Notifications are not standard messages, client should rather display it as
a change in subscribed node.

I don't know did you look into my application but I already proposed some
store mechanism so bind it with search engine shouldn't be very difficult
but rather a obvious issue.

As I said my proposal is not real chat but it is real-time. I mentioned
disadvantages of chat logging in my last mail.


Thank you for your advices and review. I would rather change my proposal and
describe other solution instead change picked up idea. IMs are my branch so
I would like to work with them, I am also keen on cross technologies
services ... so this idea is created for me. I saw that some other student
is working on this case but GSoC is a competition.
