O.P. Jabber account in usercp / profile
In the usercp you can configure all sorts of contact thingies, like your website, msn address, icq number, etc. However, there's no such thing for Jabber. Can this be added, so I can add my Jabber account?

I may be wrong, but isn't jabber dependent of the server you use? Why would you want to add a field for a server-dependent account?

:dodgy:

Someone sent me a PM asking for "Skype" to be added as well... :-/

As I've said before, there are too many fields in the users table as it is; supporting 6+ different IM account fields seems kinda excessive.

Put it in your profile if you want it there.

Sort of. But all servers are/can be connected, so someone with an @jabber.org account can chat with people @something.org

the part after the "@" has nothing to do with the server they're on... :-/

i mean, google talk is also uses the XMPP protocol, and it can't talk with jabber contacts

Google uses the same protocol, but not Jabber, yes.
