Of course, but having one client which we call the official client will be contraproductive for every other client.

This is no different to jabber.org picking a single server, though.


It's not. An open source client can be developed by everybody. Everybody can participate, write patches, etc. If it's the official client, everybody will focus on that.

jabber.org is just a server. It's run by the XSF. Not everybody can administrate it and thus abandon other servers. Sure, one could develop for ejabberd and hope jabber.org will be updated to the latest rev. But it's still different, as ejabberd isn't the official server software.

PS: Please don't CC me, I'm on the list - I have to be on the list, otherwise I can't write.
