I was kicking around the idea of installing a jabber

companies server to allow instant messaging on the local area network.
Would reactos.com be willing to do something like that or is that too
far out of the scope of the project.
I was going to use OpenLDAP for authentication and save all of the
conversations in XML files in both senders and recipients home
folders. I also was going to write an XSL to display those messages.
I think this would help out both developers and users of reactos.
Including future RosMessenger or something like that...
We already have an IRC channel and (theoretically) we'll have the forum
back eventually. I think putting yet more services on reactos.com is
asking for more trouble like the one that caused our recent site
problems.
freenode, even if some people have problems with it, does serve us well
IMO.

Here's a simple experiment. Stand on a train track between two locomotives
which are pushing on you with equal force in opposite directions. You will
exhibit no net motion. None the less, you may soon begin to notice that
something important is happening.
