That makes two. Were there others that tried but couldn't get in?
jabber.org was definitely down, but I had no trouble connecting using
my gmail account. (Gmail chat is jabber, for anyone who didn't know.)
Does this require the Google Talk client?
The Adium client does not seems to always allow auto registration but
instead assumes it is already registered. This may be due to a
corporate firewall issue however. Even once a server was found that
would register a new account (and was noted as allowing group chat),
502 server errors were reported when attempting to connect to the
room server. This is not the first time Jabber has failed, and not
just with this group. It seems doubtful that Jabber should be
trusted at this time.
If the key element of Jabber is to see a rapid display of +++ and
---, then simply call for votes on the reflector. It is ridiculous
for someone say on a jabber session "Convince me otherwise". A list
should allow better responses. The issue really seems not wanting to
read. This is where threads should be used.
