Re: Liberate Apps Through Protocols: Lets Update IRC! - http://continuations.com/post...
"Hum. XMPP has evolved a lot to adopt modern requirements of mobile devices :) But let's not start (yet another) protocol war: the web is great because anybody can play. And this is the exact definition of what a protocol is: speak the language and join the chat. Let's get rid of anything that builds barriers: ToS, API credentials, central "authority"... etc. This is what we need to see more open-ness and decentralization." - Julien
