[JDEV] Best way to drive Jabber adoption?

[David 'TheRaven' Chisnall]

Sounds like a good idea.  I'd be happy to contribute.  Last summer I 
wrote a basic PHP client which displayed a user's roster and allowed the 
sending and receiving of messages.  Once I've had a chance to tidy up 
the code (some of which is quite ugly) I'd be happy to BSD license it 
and contribute it to the project.  It could be used to give a Jabber 
webmail analogue or an ICQ web pager equivalent (or both)
