Great, the moderator just approved all the comments too The Debian stuff is still in the works, had a great discussion with Matthew and some other free software projects at FOSDEM. I took the previous discussion points from email and added them here: https://wiki.debian.org/UnifiedCommunications/DebianDevelopers/XMPP As for Debian offering a service to our users: that is more complicated. It is not up to me to make a decision about that personally, but my own feeling is that if we did that we would a) put more stress on our Debian Sys Admin (DSA) team b) compete with some users of Debian who run public XMPP services as a business and so it is probably not going to happen. What could happen is that we could discuss (maybe with another thread or on the debian-project mailing list) ways that Debian can provide a choice of public XMPP services to new users.
