jabber transports…
Jabber is great. I like the technology, i like the clients, and i love the ability to chat with users of every possible IM network from one program (that’s what transports for).
Most people i know use ICQ or MSN, so i really need those transports. Here lies the problem. As a jabber user you can register on any public server, and register on a transport on any (possibly other) public server. Jabber usually works just great. But it’s not the case with transports. Sometimes transports are down. Sometimes they are up but not working - and as a user i only know it when I’m asked by someone in email: “Why are you offline?”.
I really don’t know how to solve this problem. Suggestions anyone? Reliable jabber servers with low downtime?

I’m running one at jabber.joshottley.com
I wish i could use it with my gmail account, but its one from google apps for your domain, and doesnt want to work, prohably becuase i can’t edit the srv records.
Your free to give it a shot though, I’m rarely down, and as long as I don’t get to bogged, that shouldnt change.
Thanks, i’ll try it.
