I'd like to say one thing on this topic.<br>
<br>
When I started using jabber, and developing a client, I used jabber.org
as my primary server. This caused me problems with the whole transport
side of things.<br>
<br>
You cannot blame the jabber.org jabber server situation for
frustration... Number 1, it is a development server. Number 2, just
think how many concurrent users that may be on the server, and possibly
trying to use the same transport... <br>
<br>
I know for a fact that 90% of the situations its not actually *just*
the jabber server causing the problem, transports have their fair share
of issues also.<br>
<br>
I would like to see transports removed from jabber.org, i know a lot of
people will dissagree with me, but at the end of the day, with the
large amount of users that use jabber.org, and the qos the typical
person expects, would it not be nicer to have a higher qos, by not
having these transport issues in the first place?<br>
<br>
My recommendation is always to try one or two of the transports offered
by other servers.<br>

It should but it doesn't.. <br>
This is my primary annoyance with Jabber. It happens to me all the time
that I see people online/offline when they aren't. The roster and the
'real' contactlist are out of sync a large part of the time. Especially
when my connection to jabber.org gets dropped these problems start to
appear. Of course I can notice that I only see Jabber people online so
in that case I either explicitly logoff from the MSN transport and then
logon again. When I do this I get the complete list of online users
again. If I do nothing I only get the updates which means that I only
see people online that came online after I reconnected to jabber.org <br>
<br>
IMO the MSN transport should receive status information from jabber.org
telling it that my connection dropped. Apparently that doesn't happen. <br>
