Facebook chat past convos

[Steve Daniel]

I didn't see anything on the developer's chat page about a replacement for
xmpp. I suspect someone will try to reverse engineer messenger's protocol,
and I hope they succeed. But even if they get something workable, it still
won't be as good as an api provided by and openly documented by Facebook.
