I believe some Pidgin developers do use OpenFire, but we really don't
recommend it. It has some serious bugs (failure to validate XML
properly, various crashes), including some which have been a problem
for Pidgin in the past. XMPP is indeed a good choice for an internal
messaging server, however, that much of this recommendation is good.
(I'm not going to say we actively *discommend* OpenFire, either, but I
do want to clarify that this OpenFire recommendation is _not_ a
recommendation of the Pidgin team.)
