To make this happen, I think we need the following: 1. Strong user/admin/developer communities throughout the world so that we have a strong base of volunteers to help out. 2. One or more easy-to-deploy IM + media relay (+web?) server packages so that volunteers around the world can quickly deploy services in their localities. 3. Easy-to-use clients that support the full range of features we'll be deploying (perhaps different profiles such as IM and IM+media). 4. Good integration between the IM, media, and website services so that we have easy web-based user registration, straightforward discovery of media relays, web interfaces to chatrooms, etc. 5. A compelling story that will encourage companies and non-profit organizations to deploy services. 6. Simple templates for internationalized / localized websites, clients, etc. 7. Effective management of the DNS aspects because if all does well we will have a lot of subdomains to manage. 8. Perhaps centralized registration at jabber.org, which you can then use to connect to any local xmpp service (pt.jabber.org or whatever). 9. Collaboration with other global-but-localized services such as Fon. 10. Keep everything as local as possible. Peter -- Peter Saint-Andre https://stpeter.im/
