is (now) XMPP" is a burden that needs to be lifted. I've done it a number
of times (though the frequency of that has dropped markedly since we first
made the name change which indicates to me that people really do get it
and/or don't care.
I agree with you, telling people that Jabber is XMPP makes sense. I think
that this should be done by putting this information in some way on the
website and/or in the software. Changing the name of the protocol in a
dialog is one (but maybe not the best) option.[[BR]]
What about telling people by putting a notice on the home page?
