Also, given our recent experience, it might be wise to do a bit more testing against test jabber servers, and make inkboard a bit more robust. Getting inkboard stable enough for us to use reliably on our own chat servers will give us confidence in recommending it for others to use.
This sounds more like an issue of the robustness of the jabber server rather than inkboard per se.
Of course, what I meant was "make the inkboard/jabber client-server system a bit more robust."
Effectively, in a client-server system it doesn't matter whether the fault lies with the client or the server; if the system as a whole is not robust, the user's experience will be poor.
If the issues are limited to this particular server, then it would be good to know, so we can recommend a better server. However, if inkboard is triggering bugs in other servers as well, then we've got a larger issue, and it may be worth adjusting inkboard to avoid putting servers into those situations if possible.
