…and Jappix (which is saddly not maintained anymore, but still), and Salut à 
Toi.

I really don't undestand why XSF is not pushing XMPP solutions even internaly, 
how can we promote XMPP if XSF itself is barely using it (it's used for MUC, 
and… that's it)? Movim is nice looking and see a growing interest, SàT is 
compatible and can handle static generation for archives or automatic 
publishing, and we develop these tools, so we can easily adapt them to new use 
cases.

The exact same thing happened a couple of years ago when Jehan proposed to use 
his Wordpress XMPP authentication plugin, without gaining a lot of interest.
He has now lost most of motivation in XMPP community and we are missing a very 
nice and competent person.


Discourse is obviously more popular and advanced now, but we need to use our 
own tools to improve them. And again we can tailor them exactly as we want.
