IMHO
Routing all traffic through the Jabber central servers will a) be very slow and b) constitute a DoS in the eyes of most server operators. Jabber, IM clients in general, email, and so on, are IMHO in the category of either: a) Ways to get onto the network in the first place i.e. exchange darknet refs or b) Ways to stay on the network: Rendezvous transports. Transports which are used only for sending the current IP address to a node which is unable to connect because it doesn't know it. Eventually we will have plugins for both data transports (UDP, TCP, HTTP etc) and rendezvous transports (IM, email etc). -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
