On reading the subject line, I was interested because I've recently started using open-source Jabber Instant Messaging. Jabber has transports to a number of other IM systems (AIM/ICQ, Yahoo, MSN), but sadly not IRC. Various Jabber servers (notably theoretic.com) do offer public chatrooms. Has there been any thought to using such a system? I realize that it probably doesn't offer much more than a mature IRC approach -- though some of the SSL capabilities were interesting. It is nice to see an open alternative to mainstream proprietary apps though. - Bob ________________________________________________ See http://PLUG.phoenix.az.us/navigator-mail.shtml if your mail doesn't post to the list quickly and you use Netscape to write mail.
