v.good! The inexorable march of progress. Now has anyone managed to hook their corporate sametime server into XMPP so that I can IM google talk users from sametime?
Is XMPP on IBM's radar by now? Ever since Lotus acquired Ubique and Databeam I have asked about Jabber interoperability. They only seemed to be interested in the fact that Jabber.com does not really have any market share ...
