This sounds exciting! But I guess this is closed system and it's not possible to see at least a screenshot?

I can share screenshots for sure. I was thinking of opensourcing the project after it was done, but will need some time to clean it up a bit. I will for sure write a blog post about it when it's done (next few weeks)

If you let me know about the blog post, I'll include it in next month's XMPP newsletter.

I’d say that it feels like just yesterday, but it totally feels like decades ago :)

I’m very lucky to still be close with so may of the truly amazing individuals that helped build Jabber, and over the years deeply honored by all those that spoke to me about how it inspired them.

While at the surface it may seem like all of our efforts had little impact on the big “messaging silos”, I am most proud of how much Jabber/XMPP has made it easy for anyone to build/host/extend a messaging and presence service. Twenty years ago the concepts and architectures were opaque, now they’re commonplace.

Happy Birthday!

How crazy is it that we not only know each other in real life because of Jabber, but also work together. :)

I have many, many fond memories of hanging out on the old IRCs with the Jabber crew. 20 years! Geeze.

Hey Jeremie! It's really awesome to have you here!

I've tried to dig up some more historical background besides of the Slashdot announcement, but failed. Do you happen to have an old copy of the 1999 changelog / code base (maybe a backup of the CVS or SVN server), just out of historical interest. The archive.org history only goes back to around 2004.

Also it's really amazing how far you've been looking into the future back then...

Before doing that, please consider contributing to an existing project first. There are many out there and they'd love more contributors.

Which is the best XMPP server? For the server mentioned here... OpenFire = written in Java Prosody = Lua Ejabberd = Erlang

Not sure if it's the best, but I tried openfire, worked great for my use case, it was easy to deploy on k8s.

Jeremie, I'm watching your talk about telehash on InfoQ and I wonder what happened to the project? Is it worth pursuing ... ?
