Wrong.
Jabber is the best option because, they can talk to people on others
network., by using a gateway on the server.
they will not need to upgrade, because this will be done on the server
side.
I do not have a upgraded gaim, but i am still able to talk with friend
on yahoo, with amessage.info server.
Okay, true I guess.  I have never tried it.  I don't use IM anyway.

BUT, obviously we need to make the distinctions between the jabber client and  
the jabber protocol/network.  I meant the protocol, not the client.  Stupid  
old English again... just like the beer/freedom problem...
