Well, maybe Marlinspike should consider just not moving so fast. There’s something to be said for stability. (Cue Debian.)

On the other hand, I do strongly agree that the extensibility of XMPP basically killed off Jabber. I’m back to just IRC except for a (non-federated) work-internal server, and occasionally (say twice a month) firing up a Jabber client to get a message through (though I mostly eMail those people instead).
