This is for a 100%-private network, so there is no need for interconnection 
with AIM or ICQ, ie. just jabber-transport. It doesn't make to force all 
users to have to look up and subscribe to every single host in our local 
network before they're able to send messages to them, especially since the 
list of subscribees is available on the server
Is there really no way to share the list among all Jabber clients?
