IM chatting via emacs+jabber

[Andrea Crotti]

I had a crazy idea, given that I love to write from emacs, it would be
great also to chat with people using that.

I use adium for many protocols, and both adium and emacs support jabber
(don't know how it is though).  I remember there was a way to create a
jabber server that bridges to other protocols.  And if I'm able to do
that I could connect from emacs to the jabber server!

Is that a stupid idea or someone is maybe doing it?
