[JDEV] The Important Things

[Peter Saint-Andre]

AFAIK, the Disney client is proprietary so you'd probably have to buy the
source from them in order to point it to your own server (I assume their
client is hardcoded to point at im.go.com). 

Also AFAIK you cannot talk to people on other servers from your account on
im.go.com (i.e., they do not have server-to-server turned on). If you ask
me that kind of defeats the purpose of the Jabber *network*, but hopefully
they'll see the light at some point (perhaps once more big servers come
online).
