Well, we should ask ourself then, what can we do to make them see all the other 
possibilities?
I don't know about everyone else, but I think manny got first involved because of the 
transports. I know it was the reason for me too, but after a (short) while you start to 
really appriciate the IM capabilities of jabber itself, and after that all the other 
possibilities and oppertunities too. I think that now though, the time they spend on 
jabber and the tranports is so short (because it simply doesn't work that well 
anymore) that they give up before they even get to see what else it can do.
