Really nice and ambitous but who's going to pay for all that :D You'll need quite a bit of bandwith if you want to create a site like this that people can also 'abuse' as just another blog/forums site :D* a personal account of course (which is a jabber account simultaneously) * a searchable profile (which merges with the user's vcard of course) * a blog which can be edited from within jabber (just like the one at amessage.info). the blog also offers an rss-feed for each user * a service like jabrss that is customizable by web (additionally) * forums (with rss-feeds) [not only for help! - on every topic] * web-integration for groupchats (list them with descriptions, show logs if available etc.) * and last but not least a web based jabber client so that they can start immediately ;-) ... to be continued ...
IMO the most important thing at the moment is making sure that people can get started with Jabber, that's just way to difficult at the moment. Other sites (for example pubsub.com) can offer these extra services :) BTW my community site idea didn't include a Jabber server, we don't want to have a central Jabber server and we don't want to compete with the other public servers out there. Besides that administrating a jabber server with several thousand (and later several millions :D) of user is hell :) IMO we should invest all that energy in improving the information on that site, other people (like Matthias) are much better at keeping public servers running :D
