Tiger Preview [via]: “iChat AV is also a versatile instant text messaging application, supporting AOL Instant Messenger and Jabber Instant Messenger clients.”

I was beginning to be desperate for followup on the rumors about iChat switching to Jabber, but it seems it might very well happen in the end (if you choose to interpret “supporting Jabber clients” the way I want to, which is the only way that does make sense).

I can’t say I’ve got very high hopes for the iChat implementation of the most advanced Jabber functionalities, but as long as it does connect to Jabber servers you should be able to take advantage of it all, starting with gateways, after you’ve configured your account with a specialized client. It was enough for me with the first version of Gush; it should be enough with iChat.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.

Hummm Je peut te rassurer. iChat, sous Tiger, gère effectivement la connexion à des serveurs jabber. Par contre je sais pas trop quoi en attendre. Par rapport à aim par exemple.
Du coup je vais tester ça ce soir. ^__^
