<div dir="ltr">Hi Fabien, Hi Tom,<br><br>I guess it's now too late for any comments, but just to let you know that I am also very interested in presence/IM/status topic (see the OPO project <a href="http://www.milanstankovic.org/opo/">http://www.milanstankovic.org/opo/</a> ). Apart from living in the world that now has Facebook/Twitter/Dopplr, we are also in the world of iPods and other mobile devices that can acces the Web and make us even more present online. I think that all this increased involvement of the Web in day-to-day lives, makes this topic very important.<br>
<br>I hope there will be room for this discussion in Galway as well.<br><br>Best regards,<br><br>Milan<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Sep 22, 2008 at 11:10 PM, Tom Heath <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:tom.heath@talis.com">tom.heath@talis.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
Great introduction, thanks! Looking forward to having you there in<br>
Oxford the next few days. The presence/status topic is one really<br>
close to my heart; the MeNow vocab goes some way towards this, and the<br>
Jabber/XMPP spec is also useful in this direction, but there seems to<br>
be huge gaps, especially in a world that now has<br>
Facebook/Twitter/Dopplr and a million other exhibitionism services ;)<br>
Let's talk more about that face to face.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Tom.<br>
