As long as I can remember jabber.org has been having problems. Downtime,
people being unable to login, failing server connections, dropped
messages, problems with registration, etc. It seems obvious that
something on that server is having some fundamental problems :)
Do we know what this problem (or those problems) is/are? Are these
problems fixable? If so, what's needed for this? More manpower? A fund
raiser?
Most people that want to try Jabber end up getting an account at
jabber.org, it's just the most visible jabber server. Now if those
people are constantly having problems with communicating with other
Jabber users because jabber.org is having problems these people are
going to drop Jabber pretty quickly and go back the (proprietary) IM
networks that they used before and that did work as advertised... IMO
that's not what we want :) We want world domination and I don't think
we're going to attain that when the main Jabber server that we have
isn't functioning (close to) 100% of the time...
What can I do to fix this? Donate time? Money? Write software? Burn
black candles and pour goat blood over my computer? Or is it just me
having problems with jabber.org?
