Maybe you could ask sourceforge first to have a poll at their homepage, so 
they really now if the SF user community wants it. Of course, the problem is 
that a lot of people don't realise the importance of Jabber! Luckily the 
people who do realise it, realise this enough, so like html was (and of 
course is!) for the web, Jabber will be to irl communication! So if you 
could get sourceforge.net so far to post a poll, maybe sb. could write a 
real short text to explain the importance of gabber (it should be really 
short or people want read it). I already tried it a little bit at 
http://www.student.rug.ac.be/astrid/Internet/jabber.php , but for the moment 
it is only available in Dutch. If sb. knows dutch and he likes it, I want to 
translate it in English if you want!
