> Is there anything to make it working over Tor? I've only had a quick look, but there are good arguments that the PGP web of trust is not necessarily the right framework for IM. I suggest that you look into OTR, which arguably is a better model *for this particular application*. http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ OTR is layered above the IM protocol, and to a great extent it's agnostic to the underlying protocol -- it works over Jabber just like it works over GG or MSN.
