Some questions:

What's the current state of XMPP libraries ? didn't one of them started to work on a server ?

What's the current state of e2e encryption ? (Last time I tried using GPG over Jabber, it worked very well)

Why do you need financial backup for a Python XMPP server ?

My Answer:

What's the current state of XMPP libraries?

In Python, the landscape is appaling. There are a lot of libs out there, but incomplete, undocumented, idiosyncrasyc, and so on.

I have hope with Ralph work in twisted. But personally I would rather prefer a pure lib approach instead of a complete "alien" framework.

didn't one of them started to work on a server ?

I know of several that delivered a very preliminar server but no second release ever.

What's the current state of e2e encryption ?

There is an approved JEP, heavyweight (PGP based). There are several lightweight proposals, none approved yet. I don't know any serious proposal for key exchange, nevertheless.

Why do you need financial backup for a Python XMPP server?

I assume that if money in involved, progress could be ensured. Call it a "bounty".
