This looks promising. You say built "on top of proven technologies, such as XMPP with PGP." Okay, these are all or some of the technologies. Why use PGP when OTR is proven to work with XMPP, and is even better than PGP in some respects (I am not a crypto expert, but I do know that the OTR protocol provides PFS and PGP does not)? Unless you detail how the underlying crypto works, I will be skeptical.

You will get a donation from me if you detail the crypto, guaranteed.
