For IM? Advantages: Many clients to choose from, all no less official than another Distributed architecture (if one server goes down, the rest keep going) Secure (encryption available, run your own private server, etc) Limitless expansion (many neat things are possible with Jabber these days) Better multi-user conferencing than IRC Disadvantages: Not well known, not as many users Slow development (most Jabber efforts have limited funding) File transfer not widely implemented No audio/video integration standard (ie, voicechat) Nothing available analogous to http://www.icq.com/ Many fringe features found in the Big 4 are not yet in any Jabber client -Justin _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://jabberstudio.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev
