It's still in it's infancy, currently working on a big update that includes a REST api and other stuff.
- hunvreus 13y agoWhy re-inventing the wheel? IRC and XMPP are proven technologies that scale, I wouldn't go and try to build my own messaging technology: there are hard problems like presence and notifications that you don't want to solve yourself.
