and is used by over a million people worldwide
- According http://www.jabber.org/tmp/faq.html are there at least 10 million users. But it is not clear how old that information is and what the mean by "users". Accounts? Used accounts? accounts used in the last 30 days ... Without more inofrmation this information is not usefull Walter 13:56, 28 May 2004 (UTC)
- It seems I have looked at an old FAQ, http://www.jabber.org/about/generalfaq.php#id2780706 this says 1 million, version of 2004-02-02 Walter 14:14, 28 May 2004 (UTC)
- I've updated the page according to http://www.jabber.org/press/2003-09-22.php BartVB 19:24, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Jabber Clients with multi protocol support
I've pasted this comment, erroneously added to the main article by an anonymous user:
* because many jabber client do not connect to other than jabber itself. * so, i like to know which client can connect to icq/msn/yahoo/etc...??? * any link to a jabber client feature comparison?
I don't know how they expected anyone to reply to them--by marring the article with further discussions?
My answer to the user's question would be Gaim; I believe it supports Jabber and I know it supports other popular instant-messaging protocols. --[[User:Ardonik|Ardonik(talk)]] 21:35, Aug 23, 2004 (UTC)
Gaim, Trillian Pro etc support jabber but this should be a seperate article
- They are included, though. If the term "multi-protocol support" is unclear, perhaps we should add an article on Mutli-protocol instant messenging clients or something. --[[User:Ardonik|Ardonik(talk)]] 03:15, Aug 31, 2004 (UTC)
Hmm ths whole article needs updating -- also i think it should be explained that "Jabber is a distributed system like e-mail"
- Edit away if you know something about the topic at hand; always be bold! --[[User:Ardonik|Ardonik(talk)]] 03:15, Aug 31, 2004 (UTC)
Ok then -- im going to move all the protocol stuff to xmpp the client list to Jabber Clients and make this page much less technical --Davelane 23:50, 11 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Please be careful with your article names! XMPP should be in capitals (and actually redirects to the full name Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol); any Jabber clients page should follow the relevant conventions on capitalisation, although it might be worth considering calling it List of Jabber clients if that is in fact what it will be. - IMSoP 00:19, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Jabber Servers
Man, there seems to be so much from one visit to the next finding information about jabber stuff on wikipedia. That's possibly good, that all that information is here, but it's a let down because I still cannot find the ircd that supports irc and jabber. I saw it on a link here somewhere, but I don't recall the article name, nor do I recall what machine I accessed it from.
- They are even not all listed in the Wikipedia article: there are at least three times more servers. You probably mean psycMUVE (http://muve.pages.de/muve.en.html). Ejabberd 21:29, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
AIM/ICQ and Jabber
Can someone add this: http://arch.jabber.com/archives/2005/04/000141.html
What precisely is Jabber?
I think this article (atleast upto the TOC) should be restructured. I intend to go ahead and do this.
First I'd like to be absolutely clear on on what jabber is. Is it:
- Just the core protocol (aka XMPP)
- The core protocol + some extensions (JEPs)
- The public Jabber network
- The phenomena of the network and the protocol (a movement)
- All of the above
- Other
