Wildfire IM public beta

In my last post I mentioned that we're looking for users to try out our test deployment of the Wildfire IM server. Well, now I'm going to make the details public.

You can point your Jabber client to messenger.case.edu, port 5222 (yeah, it's a nonstandard XMPP port... When this goes to production, it'll be the normal 5222). If you don't have a Jabbber client, you can try Jive's open-source Spark. If for some reason your client can't do TLS, you can do the "old style" SSL encryption on port 5223.

Server-to-Server XMPP is enabled, so you should be able to IM Google Talk and other Jabber users. We've also got the IM gateway plugin enabled, which will allow you to connect to AIM, Yahoo, MSN, ICQ, and IRC to some extent from your Jabber client.

update: All the connection details in this post are now correct, since the port move happened on Wednesday.
