(The actual fields defently need to be rethought - it was never my aim 
to put in the final stuff in the mockup anyway)

But don't you thin this will clutter up the whole screen? - There will 
be lots and lots of features.
I think we should only offer the most basic things in the wizard, since 
it is for the ordinary user.
Or did you want to choose only a couple of  features and offer them only?

For now it is not so difficult. But hopefully this changes soon.
I'm sure there is somebody out there who can keep the list up to date ;)
Besides if the list grows too big we can switch to a textual list, and 
only use logos for the huge providers.

Concerning the filters I suggest we first build a database and fill it, 
and then look what kind of filters work best.
My mockups should just give a visual impression how a wizard 
walk-through could/should work.

Maybe we can explain JID since I think it is an imporant acronym if you 
use jabber in your daily life.
I have no problem to replace it as long as we are consistent regarding 
such terms.
