You can already receive XMPP messages if they aren't encrypted with some work behind the scenes using the terminal. But it would be great if we could send messages, use OMEMO encryption and have a better UI to do more things that XMPP allows/requires.

A missing spotify app (already in developement :) ), a missing mail app (planned for 14.04 :) ) and finally a missing IM app -- especially for XMPP. Thusly, I propose adding support for XMPP to the messaging-app. It already uses telepathy so we should be able to add this functionality. I would also be willing to work on this if somebody points me out where to start. I guess we would have to break this down into several work packages: setting up accounts, online/offline handling of friends, choosing protocols when composing a message etc. But first I would like to get some feedback if you would be okay with such a feature. Maybe it is already planned?
