Newer versions of bahamut will do encrypted links. Just rc4.
Scalability while compressing to clients is a severly limiting factor unless you only plan on using it locally.

should we be trying to improve their reliability? Or is this just a "feature" of how presence services work.
We use IRC for internal communication, and for communication with techies of several other Dutch ISPs. Works like a charm, and the irc server is local to us. If it's down, you pick another irc-server on the same network.
Works for us, works for lot of people.
