It is true that users who hit jabber.org for the first time need guidance. Most want a single simple download link. On the other hand offering only one or two clients is unfair for the other developers. Therefore we have a long list with the box at the top of the page as a compromise. A certification makes it more fair, although probably not better. A certification must not be easy to achieve. Otherwise we get a large list of certified clients, servers, etc. I would probably not certify clients, but rather select distinguished projects. At most one or two per category. I have no idea and even less time to work on certification rules. This makes it difficult for me to vote pro certification. But I would support some kind of selection of distinguished projects. My 2 cents, because I think this list need more answers to questions and polls. hw -- Dr. Klaus H.
