Hi,
why do users use jabber?
tia,

1. The ability to run my own server, for free (or not), for internal and/or external use, with complete freedom on it (see 5).

2. The jabber protocol is open. The specs are available and anyone can contribute to them, perpetuating the spirit of the internet (RFC).

3. IMHO, the jabber protocol is the best I know of, based on XML and easy to extend to fit any need.

4. Interoperability: jabber interoperate with most of the other IM system, name it.

5. The ability to write my own server or modify an existing one, without going to jail.

6. The choice in jabber clients. Clients exist for every OS, and if you want a different one, one can write it, since without going to jail.
