BuddySpace is based on Jabber (http://www.jabber.org) with some extra functionalities. The BuddySpace client itself manages contact lists, and provides groupchat. File transfers were implemented using an intermediate web server. As for the voice and video, we use link to an independent flash application (running in any browser and through any firewall; i.e. no installation needed) developed also KMi called FlashMeeting (http://flashmeeting.com/). Also Hexagon is a nice application based on similar engine: http://cnm.open.ac.uk/projects/hexagon/. Another project similar project could be Lyceum http://kmi.open.ac.uk/projects/lyceum/. There’ve been some discussions about standardization and implementation of video and telephony also into Jabber.
