#2The problem with Jabber is, that you are locked in to one server, switching means that you have to re-add all your contacts and so far there is no automatic way to do it. I think the developer of IMCom (console Jabber client) thought about that and how it could work but I don't think his idea got a lot of attention.

Re-adding contacts is easy. Back in 2006 I used to manually prepare XML for injection into XML console in Psi in order to add all my Gadu-Gadu contacts to XMPP roster using transport. Now things like that can be easily automated thanks to XEP-0144. You could probably use XEP-0321 for it as well.

#7 What's good about it being hosted in Germany? The fact that there's no free speech?

#8>Efficient and environmentally friendly air conditioning technology contributes to environmental protection in the data center.
Speaking of environmentally friendly AC methods, I always found it fascinating and simple yet genius when I read the news that facebook has some data centers in very cold parts of the world.
Edit: Here's a little gallery of their data center in northern Sweden: https://www.facebook.com/zuck/posts/10103136694875121

You may be getting downvoted for snark and hyperbole, and that wouldn't be unfair, but it might be Germany's exemplary use of renewable energy that makes the host country relevant.
