Hi. 

The guy that implements Zeroconf in KDE has some quite interesting
thoughts on how to collaborate with the IM-system on the computer. 

When dot.kde.org comes to live again, it should be here:
http://dot.kde.org/1114696139/

KDE/Zeroconf wiki:
http://wiki.kde.org/tiki-index.php?page=Zeroconf+in+KDE

Basic idea, Zeroconf won't work across the internet, but collaboration
should be as easy as Zeroconf anyway, thereby using the IM-system to
publish services from your host to your contactlist. This would be an
"ugly hack" on proprietary IM-systems, but could be integrated fine in
Jabber/XMPP. 

Jabber, though, would still be nice if it worked in a local Zeroconf network :-)
