Count another vote for LibraryThing. I haven't had time to enter more than few books but I already like it. And it is also a social networking site, you can find people with similar reading intrests.
Um, isn't that what he said? I mean "installer app" isn't exactly the same as "package manager", but it's pretty darn close. And then he talked about why IRC might not meet a company's requirements, so he got the ircd part right. Right?
crazy wacko Luddites who live in cabins in Montana.
I'll have you know that in my (former) corner of Montana, the crazy wackos who live in cabins can get some pretty descent deals on dsl, thanks to Interbel haveing the foresight to install 200 miles of fiber.
No, we don't need a miracle. An aerodynamic, low-rolling resistance, ultralight (composite) mid-sized SUV could be energy efficent enough to go ~330 mile on 3.4kg (138 L) of hydrogen. At 5,000 psi (easily doable today) the tank(s) would be a very managable size.

That's basically what I am saying, except that I think file transfer can also be done with a proxy (which would likely be the Jabber server). Maybe I am wrong, but that's how I interpret the JEP. Also maybe the spec says that, but nobody implements it. If I am reading the JEP wrong, or nobody implements it, please let me know.
Sockets may be direct (peer-to-peer) or mediated (established through a bytestreaming service) ... Proxy - A Jabber entity which is not NAT/Firewalled and is willing to be a middleman for the bytestream between the Initiator and the Target
So the book might include some info on OpenPGP and TLS, but not on S/MIME or Encrypted Sessions. It also would not include a lot of other good stuff like Personal Eventing Protocol (PEP, AKA Simplified PubSub), anti-SPIM methods, Jingle Audio, the current method of File Transfer, etc.
So yeah, you might want to wait for a new edition or just use online resources
I have heard of Sametime, although I have never used it. As far as proprietary IM systems stopping people from chatting with friends, that is true but you could do the same thing by running your own Jabber server. Just disallow server to server connections and stop client to server connection at the firewall.
The XMPP RFC describes the useage of SASL and TLS: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3920.txt TLS can be used on client-sever connections and on sever-server connections.
JEP 116 describes Encrypted Sessions, which seems to be somewhat reminiscent of SSH: http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0116.html I don't know that anyone implements this yet.
BTW Can someone tell me whether the connection between the two people chatting with Jabber is P2P or whether it is routed via the server?
Normal chatting at least is all client-server. File transfer can be p2p (normal case) or client-server, while Jingle Audio is p2p.
It should be perfectly safe. If you want to be really safe, you could back up your profile, but everthing should work fine. As far as extension incompatability, Moz 1.7 -> SeaMonkey 1.0 is about like FF 1.0 -> FF 1.5. Maybe a little less, as FF 1.5 had more UI (non-gecko) changes than SeaMonkey. I am using the 1.0 beta with the Extension Manager extension, Stumble Upon, Web Dev and Flashblock
Yeah, the classic netscape theme is ugly. They are considering making Modern (which is pre-installed) the default in the future. IMHO the Modern theme looks better than the default Firefox theme.
It is being worked on. I don't think there are many people on the team, which could explain why it is taking so long. They post status updates on the calander blog: http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/calendar/
Why would you boo canvas? If you don't go to any sites that use it, it will not affect you other than the fact that gecko builds svg on top of the canvas interface.
Drag and drop tags have turned out to be much more useful to me than I thought they would be.
I can't comment on autoscroll as I don't use it (does it even work on Linux?).
Nice analogy, but personally I play games for the gameplay (not graphics), but I eat cake mainly for the icing (that is not to say that I would eat shit cake with icing, though).
It seems like it would be a trivial task to make a message passer; a client that simply accepted messages from one protocol, translated it to the other and sent out the message using a pre-programmed username/password combination.
That's what Jabber server transports do, I use Psi to talk to my brother on MSN all the time.
Are you saying that Google doesn't have a "accept messages only from people on my contact list" option?!
I don't know if Google's implementation has that option right now, but there are several JEP's (158, 159, 161) that deal with spim (IM spam), and they include the option "accept messages only from people on my contact list". I would imagine Google will add it soon if they haven't already.

Thanks for the extension and thanks for making it work with SeaMonkey.

By the way, the Hula project is pretty much dead at this point.
c hbrowse.php/hula-commits/2006-March/thread.html?id =1613&prjname=hula&mlname=commits
66 messages in the Hula svn-commit mailing list in March (so far) (and ~150 in February) disagree with you.

I didn't think you meant that, I should have added a :-) somewhere in my post.
/because you can only guess the intended tone of a message 50% of the time ;-)

I am not a PDA user, but I agree with you 100% on Chrono Trigger.
/Mmm, Chrono Trigger
//Wait, this isn't fark...
That seems odd. Hopefuly Google will fix it soon.
I don't know about Firefox per se, but it works fine in SeaMonkey 1.0
File transfer (http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0096.html) uses "SOCKS5 Bytestreams and In-Band Bytestreams, to be preferred in that order."
From JEP 65 - SOCKS5 Bytestreams (http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0065.html):
Programming Jabber
Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc.; 1st edition (January 1, 2002)
RFC 3923 (s/mime) is dated october 2004 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3923.txt)
version 0.1 (current=0.9) of JEP 116 (Encrypted Sessions) is dated 2003-09-09 (http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0116.html)
JEP 27 (current openPGP usage) version 0.1 is dated 2002-03-12 (http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0027.html)
The basic XMPP RFC (3920) (inc. TLS) says the XMPP WG was founded in 2002. (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3920.txt)
So the book might include some info on OpenPGP and TLS, but not on S/MIME or Encrypted Sessions.
It also would not include a lot of other good stuff like Personal Eventing Protocol (PEP, AKA Simplified PubSub), anti-SPIM methods, Jingle Audio, the current method of File Transfer, etc.
