I would like to believe the same. The prosody folks are awesome btw (as an alternative to ejabberd).

But there are still open issues. One big one, compared to all the FB/Google/etc. offerings is the ability to have a usable chat log. Current xmpp implementations/standards are more or less useless if you happen to use more than one device and want to look something up/want to see what you wrote to your brother yesterday, on your desktop, while looking at your phone.

Mandatory extensions in my world: - Stream Management (easy) - Carbon Copies (easy) - MAM/Message Archive (described above, hard, haven't found a way yet)




Mam is exactly what I am waiting for too.

It should be in prosody 0.10 [1] (not stable yet) but I did not yet have a change to test it.

(And XEP-0313 is still quite new and experimental)
