Having a gmail account, I just said I wanted a googletalk account (jabber), gave my username and password, and was in. I suspect that those instructions are only needed in exceptional circumstances now. Did you try to sign up with one of the lesser known providers? It would help if we could even get some confirmation from other users as to what does and doesn't work. I'll see whether I can get any info from mailing lists.
Since googletalk supports jabber much of the information on this page may be obsolete. I tried the link to xmmp.net mentioned here, but couldn't connect (the error message indicated server problems, but it has lasted for four days now - maybe the link is broken?)
Then I followed the link to the wikipedia page, found a server and got an account. I don't know if it works, but at any rate the interface that I worked with in Kopete seemed to differ a bit from what is described here.
It would be very helpful to get feedback from a user, who has actually used jabber transports. Should we put an info box on the page warning that the information may be outdated and asking for help?
