iChatAV 3.0 is rumored to support these protocols. IBM, you are all for standards, aren't you. How about implementing those in Sametime and WP?
Comments
I imagine the answer to that is WP IM is 100% SIP/SIMPLE based, and Jabber offers a XMPP - SIP/SIMPLE gateway.
carl, not quite. ;)
Samtime has ist own protocol, at least that's what I learnd at Lotussphere 04, which is a superset of SIP (Whiteboard, ...). So first you need a Sametime-SIP Gateway to then access the SIP-XMPP Gateway.
Talking about middleware ;)
that's sametime not the new workplace IM. So you are right, but not response to my comments ;-)
