The Latest on the Case IM System
1. Oracle Messenger has been officially retired. This actually happened a few weeks ago, but I didn't get around to announcing it until now due to vacation, etc.
2. Because of (1), we've now got the Wildfire server listening for SSL connections on the correct SSL XMPP port (i.e. 5223). If you're using a client that needs to use the old SSL port, adjust accordingly. We're also working on getting a real SSL certificate installed, which should stop iChat from giving errors upon making SSL connections.
3. The "change-the-JIDs" move I keep talking about is going to happen. This may also be combined with some other changes that will improve reliability. Stay tuned for details.
4. We have now purchased the Enterprise version of Wildfire. Because of this, we will be soon distributing a customized version of Spark.
5. I'm also starting to look at the FastPath functionality in the Enterprise Server. This will allow specially-defined workgroups to do "click-to-chat". I've already got one group interested in this, which partially came out of a conversation I had during my vacation(!).
