> Christopher Muclumbus is a new project to publicly list XMPP/Jabber chat rooms. It provides a web interface with full-text search considering the rooms name, address and description. Only rooms which are 
configured to be publicly listed are shown, to prevent possible privacy issues. It is still in a kind of beta phase, so feedback on it is especially welcome. For more details visit the website.

What determines relevancy?

The submission must ideally be a blog or article about XMPP/Jabber and/or XMPP-based software (clients, servers, libs).

Some exceptions might be made, for example for a release page showing a new release of some XMPP-based software.

However, marketing brochures (e.g. single-page marketing sites) for new products which don't contain information on XMPP, won't be included.

Make sure you read the Basic communication guide for XMPP techies
