Features:
A better messaging service for business purposes. It could potentially reduce the company’s TCO, RTO, RPO and contains vast improvements to existing protection and intellectual property management with productivity enhancements.
Graphically and conceptually superior visual design, driven by a brand new semantics oriented GUI engine.
Based on open standards IETF XMPP and SIP for compatibility with other software products and peripherals.
Patent pending client-server architecture, 20x more scalable than before, which will enable your existing IT infrastructure to manage the new messaging service without purchasing any new hardware or software.
Smart universal client gateway for messaging interoperability with the main networks (AIM®, ICQ®, MSN®, YAHOO!®).
Createmotions™ DreamRTL enables your PC to embed large software objects with a fraction of the resources needed by other products.
The author Roberto Della Pasqua says: “Createmotions is the result of four years of full time development and academic research by a team comprised of international talent, with the ultimate goal of bringing evolutionary messaging software methods to the business market, the home use and the third sector”.
His IM program is a Jabber client (Also known as XMPP, Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol), compatible with any other Jabber client, so it will not be another closed system that all your friends have to use, just another choice if you use the Jabber protocol for IM.
Jabber is very cool by the way, and easily beats AIM, MSN, Yahoo, or ICQ.
And I am certainly not a Internet noob, I am a senior software engineer and write device drivers for Solaris, Linux, HP-UX, and Windows. I've also written part of the code in sendmail, the leading Internet mail transfer agent. I've written code in a commercial anti-virus product, and I know a double-digit number of programming languages.
So except that you demonstrated that you can't read and that you jump to conclusions, you did not really say anything...that is what I call a noob!
Now, XMPP is an awesome protocol, but the problem is that it dosn't scale well. You're sending and recieving XML, not binary like you would with OSCAR or MSNP. That's a hell of a lot of XML to parse, and in most cases, the XML in a message vastly outnumbers the payload. Jabberd, the most popular XMPP server, usually gets by with about a max of 10,000 users at once.
This guy claims his can host a million concurrent users, which is ****ing incredible. If he lives up to his claim or not is as much of a mystery to me as it is to you.
Considering I've been not only seeing his posts on my mailing list, but here makes me think he's acutally going to try for a 1 million user stress test, so I have a little faith.
And even if his server component is major fux, as long the client is nice, the better. I've yet to see a decent Jabber client.
Obviously we can't change the tcp/ip stack, but our architecture is able to manage realtime 16bit sockets 64K at time on a properly tuned kernel on a P2 400. The last bench was done in a system quadopteron 4GB ram with 600K sockets in a 32bit kernel, but before tell more we need to get a certification (need months and expenses), then we'll explain how-to. The magic is on a technical method (patented) that permit to use all these concurrent sockets using lowest possible cpu/ram resources. Further the same method permit to our internal test with a RFC2616 gateway (http1) and isapi PHP module to generate 500% more hits for second than a linux/apache into the same machine (test done at end 2002).
Thank you for the trust.
I'll not talk anymore about server details before the publication date (Q3-Q4 2005).
I wish you a nice day.
Best regards,
Roberto Della Pasqua
The way it can sign on to legacy IM services is by "transports". Transports are small programs running on a XMPP server (it does not need to be the one your account is on) that are basically mini AIM/MSN/Yahoo/ICQ clients. They log onto your account, take your jabber messages and convert them to AIM/MSN/Yahoo/ICQ messages, and vice versa.
Transports are a lot less complex then Trillian is, and only support basic messaging. The key here is the XMPP protocol itself, and once it's widely used, that will be the end of the bloated, closed IM services we have today.
From their webpage:
They don't even ask you to write your name, country, system specs, experience with IM messaging bla bla bla.
EDIT: Check their page, they added a signup form!!!

As for his CreateEmotions client, I'm going to need to give it a try.
I like tell you that I don't want make illusions, or make hype around a product not yet released. Please wait the release, then take your thoughts.
I sure you that our proprietary server exahust the TCP/IP of winsock2 15-16bit -> 32K/64K sockets and realtime manage jabber xmpp with 3 jep extensions. The NT engine is near completed. The Linux engine is still under experiment, and we will try to certify the engine with university to manage realtime 1million sockets in a single server.
The first piece (level 1 - Q2 2005) of createmotions is a smart client, it manage the four protocols plus jabber (as gaim, trillian and kopete). But it has some exciting features.
I hope to not disappoint you.
After, the level 2 (Q3-4 2005) is the server business area. And the level 3 is a secret really (the very bet of cemotions).
Have a nice day.
Btw. please don't make createmotions "in war" with others messengers, I like a lot both trillian and gaim.
Roberto
btw. do you like the logo of createmotions?
Thanks
