It is possible that XMPP will be used mainly for enterprise IM inside organizations, and for things other than person-to-person chat (there is a lot happening these days with machine-to-machine communication in the broad sense), whereas person-to-person chat will happen using other technologies (IMHO likely p2p, not a decentralized server model). But my crystal ball is not 100% accurate. ;-) Peter - -- Peter Saint-Andre https://stpeter.im/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.19 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJSnMhVAAoJEOoGpJErxa2p1C4QAJY7gNr4/YWL8MDt14V9PjZn yQNLgJPQM6MT27KHgBPC68hr7ZxnqOrMPmkSFNJnOs6C+w+fE1EfDifXmtccyreq AucUeZkz0vNB/Ht3G/9ffwCYkPggjg+tYRPvFm3BKnf5ZEUDmYKJMLZeM/V7ucGQ THm0DBF6KWUn9B9s8osUcoXO6wy260GSew18hZ4pd4x4KJM+zvnoMKyrTOIgRqDZ /7cQ/S4AGW9OwtXC+nQJC0Q3R3Ftn5vm7FGZn2X2jLoqXDRSc/BHSH8cAgqCsyOB gbFpCXRbnMGuaPgfPzBq88mGNAI3/4c/l6HzWAuuqXxIMSYyoK1tgueadvrkyuj9 UMHOoM9SIauo3d0iBiry75zdE5U64BFkA5uIRdLX2+cib+Ir/KLBRKHNAc+U22fK Z8TcvWOvq7rny2pCrZjZNQ7kcGQw7c6zfsn07AJ8ABwj7TdQtYcweZwZHkvwM8Ap 2u8tN+7mjlAYuZRX5W0SJR0ZlJMxqUEWJ8LMv7cc8has9ye86DmwNb4833K1zrQ1 dWtpJhIfZb5EqSA9xNTJta9Ro4UT9Aw+KJ/FHQoM6eMOaVd4DJyBzTZ4Te2x/0qK nIsOFnawN1ZkaGcmnjJRltz7H+HIt+b4YbBEUr9QZHOF9vZl/iBr7wsoN8pnnxXJ xMe3FrG1jKZVhnuaTSBD =L+lf -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
