> Hello,
>
> IS&T invites you to participate in a pilot of a Jabber Instant
> Messaging service.   Jabber is an instant messaging system that
> allows MIT users to communicate with one another and Jabber users
> elsewhere on the Internet. Jabber also supports creation and
> joining of chat rooms for group communication. Additionally, many
> Jabber clients also offer support for other instant messaging
> systems such as AIM (AOL) and YIM (Yahoo).
>
> The intention of the pilot is to learn more about requirements for
> providing this as an enterprise messaging service and understand
> some of the support and service issues.  The pilot will focus on
> setting up the server environment and delivering installers for
> GAIM and AdiumX (software clients for Linux, Macintosh and Windows).
>
> The Jabber pilot team will provide limited best effort support, and
> pilot participants are strongly encouraged to give feedback. As the
> pilot progresses, the team will send updates and post them to the
> web pages listed below. The pilot will run through December 2005.
> IS&T will start a more formal release effort if the pilot is
> successful.
>
> The following draft web pages provide download information,
> configuration instructions and information about known issues.
