Hi there,


I started the Prosody project a year or two back

Prosody is one project you should really look at if you are worried about the protocol dying. These guys are doing some really great work (mad props to Matthew).

Nicolas touched on OCS and other offerings (higher up in the thread). We currently use OCS are our IM platform at my work (*sigh* Microsoft shop, what can you do?) - keep in mind that these are Text/Voice/Video and pretty much nothing else. XMPP simply can't die because there is nothing else that fills the technology hole that it does. Furthermore these other technologies generally do not have the reliability that XMPP does (OCS is really unreliable; for instance, because of the P2P nature of it); so when it comes to choosing a protocol/architecture for mission critical systems XMPP is the way to go (just look at some of the XMPP consumers out there; US government, hospitals etc.)

People are just jumping onto these other technologies because they are the new bandwagon. XMPP will always be there.


Regards,
Matthew
