A 'cool' feature here would be that each client can use their own conference server to connect to (i.e. lluna uses the lluna chat server, and sametime uses the sametime chat server). Then it would be neat to 'link' the lluna and the sametime chat servers together (very much IRC servers are linked together). This way you would get redundancy, but I'm not sure how practical it is. The biggest problem with any centralised architecture is that it's centralised. This almost needs a distributed p2p rendezvous-style MUC server implementation. -- - Norman Rasmussen - Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Home page: http://norman.rasmussen.co.za/
