Sounds like a good idea. I'd be happy to contribute. Last summer I wrote a basic PHP client which displayed a user's roster and allowed the sending and receiving of messages. Once I've had a chance to tidy up the code (some of which is quite ugly) I'd be happy to BSD license it and contribute it to the project. It could be used to give a Jabber webmail analogue or an ICQ web pager equivalent (or both)

Maybe setting up a jabberstudio project for making a jabber end-user site *framework* would solve the cost problem: then it's up to others to actually use that framework on a site in their own country :).

And it almost completely solves:

Almost, because you can't get away from the maintenance problem :(
