Please note also that the current set of Administration tools, At those that I have been able to find, are not suitable for Production/supported/service level agreement use.
These would have to be developed as well. Not hard. Nonetheless The task needs to be completed for that level of deployment.

Yes, it is possible, with (1) smart, motivated developers whose task it is to build a highly-scalable solution, (2) good admins who know how to operationalize a service like this, and (3) enough hardware. Neither of those is trivial, but they can be overcome. Note that the open-source developers who have worked on Jabber/XMPP server so far are pretty smart, but their task has not been to develop highly-scalable servers (that's a big-company itch!). Plus they don't have access to lots of hardware, and usually don't have experience with operationalizing services for millions of people (IMHO that's a rather specialized area of knowledge, mostly acquired by people at large ISPs, telecoms, and portals -- more big companies!). But there is nothing inherent in Jabber/XMPP technologies that makes it impossible to build an IM service for a million concurrent users.
