This could be a great opportunity for Jabber. All of the feedback I've had from people on my roster who have upgraded to 6 has been along the lines of `DON'T INSTALL MSN MESSENGER 6!', promptly followed by them migrating back to 5...

In a mail I send earlier this month (or last month), I talked about Microsoft shutting down their old msn protocol server. This was at that moment not true just a temp. Crash of a server. MSN 5 and up where still running. Now how ever it seems that MS will shut down their old msn server: http://weblogs.jupiterresearch.com/msft/archives/001338.html

If have also be receiving e-mail form MSN-Passport to upgrade my MSN
messenger (which I don't have installed I use jabber ;P). If I don't
do so I will not be able to connect any more.

Soon it seems that a new MSN gateway is now even more wanted as
befor. Seen de MSN mail bellow:
