So unlike cryptocat this is still going client <--> server <--> other clients right?

Therefore am I correct in thinking Tesla is still open to the same lavabit issue where the gov't sends a national security letter and Tesla has to build in a backdoor to capture the RSK?

We're not based in the USofA and don't plan to be there.

That's good to hear. It seems like the www.tesla.im server is hosted by amazon in virginia. I am not familiar with tesla's architecture, are the servers actually powering the chat rooms etc located outside the usa?

I have been having a lot of issues with cryptocat and am evaluating other options.

Our servers are in the US. It should not matter. You can read about a similar case here: http://blog.fastmail.fm/2013/10/07/fastmails-servers-are-in-...
