Taxonomy

We’ll flesh this page out more as time permits, but consider this a rough sketch of the different technologies and buzzwords we consider to be in-scope for IM Roadmap.  There can be alot of overlap among these terms, but for now let’s just get them out in the open.

• Instant Messaging (IM)
• Enterprise Instant Messaging  (EIM)
• Group Chat
• Persistent Group Messaging (PGM)
• Persistent Group Chat (PGC)
• Chat
• Presence

Again, we’ll flesh this out as time goes by.  In the meantime – feel free to chime in with your own thoughts on these.  See the post “IM Taxonomy” and comment there.
