Greetings!

Years ago, someone here has posted to one of the Jabber mailing list a
suggestion to use "software purpose signs" (this is a phrase I use),
similarly to traffic signs and "creative commons" signs to which he has
made a reference.

Considering software such as LeechCraft, Libervia, Movim, and now
Rivista which are extensively or solely related to publishing; and

Considering a download manager software* which allows to be remotely
controlled via XMPP; and

Considering gateways, such as Slidge; and

Considering devices (aka IoT) that incorporate XMPP; and

Considering chat bots.

I think it is definitely a good idea to make use of signs as an optional
practice to categorize thhe type of software, and to make new people to
be aware that XMPP is not only for IM as too many of them, including
developers, might think.

* I do not recall the name of that software. I recall that it was
  published on launchpad.net and it was written in Python.

Kind regards,
Schimon
