Jabber using Drupal
I've been meaning to blog about this for months. So in case you haven't noticed yet, our friends at Jabber are using Drupal for jabber.org. They are also using Mollom to protect their website against spam.
I still want my Drupal to talk to my Jabber. Think "Drupal → Mollom → Jabber/XMPP → instant messaging client" to get notifications about new comments or other important events, for a example. Lots of other XMPP-Drupal opportunities as well ...
There have been some effort to achieve this. Last GSoC http://drupal.org/project/xmpp was developed and if I'm not mistaken it has subscribe-notify functionality.

July 20, 2008 - 18:18Do you know about APC? The Association for Progressive Communications (APC) is a global network of civil society organisations whose mission is to empower and support organisations, social movements and individuals in and through the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs). Its website was built recently in Drupal too.
