Thank you!

Too many solutions rely on a centralized off-site hosted server and for some sensitive environments an on premesis solution is required.

Does this support XMPP federation, and is it based on XMPP? If not, I am interested in the analysis performed and why you opted to not use XMPP.

Thanks click170,

When we talked to potential users, XMPP didn't come up as a priority, and we haven't yet had a feature request filed for it.

Very happy to have it added so XMPP can be upvoted: http://mattermost.uservoice.com/

One of the major reasons my current organization uses Hipchat is that it supports XMPP. The importance to us is that it allows us to use OTR between users with clients like Pidgin or Adium. As a security company, that is a very valuable thing.
