IM Interoperability in France
Posted by Stowe Boyd
Jabber and Followap recently completed a series of interoperability tests, which have led to an interoperable service in France.
"The service will enable the majority of France's mobile subscribers to communicate with each other through richer presence-based media, such as instant messaging, MMS and dynamic address books, according to Jabber's acting president Tony Barmonti.
"Interoperability and extensibility are increasingly the mantras of wireless operators worldwide," Cutter Consortium analyst Stowe Boyd says. Recent research from In-Stat/MDR, a Wireless Week sister company, indicates there will be more than 2 billion wireless subscribers worldwide by 2007.
In July, Followap announced Vodafone Group plc named it the sole provider of Vodafone's instant messaging platform. The deal called for Followap to deliver its iFollow suite of products to Vodafone operators."
