Hi. I was writing a little article for someone about Jabber that called
for a brief history of Jabber (and IM in general). I did my best from
memory and didn't put in any exact dates so I think it's OK (although I
did need to gloss over the fact that Jeremie was only 2 when he started
working on the protocol).
This got me thinking and looking but didn't really find anything about the
history of IM much less that of Jabber per se. DJ has some in his book
but there are no dates. I wanted to whip out a little graphical timeline
and thought I'd ask for some dates. I'd like to include the inception of
both commericial and open source efforts. If you know have some dates and
would like to contribute that'd be cool. Thanks.
