What do you have in mind for user-friendly content changes on jabber.org?

Not sure because IMO jabber.org is fairly OK as a developers portal. But this is the first sentence of the 'What is Jabber' page:

"Jabber is a set of streaming XML protocols and technologies that enable
any two entities on the Internet to exchange messages, presence, and
other structured information in close to real time."

Imagine what happens if your grandmother reads that ;) Or what happens
if your grandmother figures out that she can talk to her bridge parter
through Jabber if she installs a client. To choose a client she'll go to:
http://www.jabber.org/software/clients.php


There are basically two matters at hand:
  1) Promoting Jabber as an IM network to Grandma.
  2) Promoting Jabber as an all-purpose networking platform.

Combining both of these into one website is impossible, and I think jabber.org already does a fine job at #2. Therefore, the solution to #1 is to build a second, separately marketed, website. No need to hack jabber.org to bits.

Yeah, jabber.org is nice from the technical point of view. What is needed is an "Jabber the IM protocol" site. And this site can leave out *all* other use cases of Jabber, and probably most technicall parts, expect for some bullets on why Jabber would be better for the avarage IM user.
