[JDEV] Disney Jabber Client

[Michael Brown]

Not true.  I have been using the Disney client for months now with my
Jabber.com account.  In my opinion it is the most stable and cleanest writen
Win32 client I have found (Kudos to the Authors).

I'm a bit unhappy if their servers aren't connected to the rest of the
Jabber world however.  Can someone give us the rational behind this if it is
the case?

Michael.
