[outages] Facebook Chat

[Jay Ashworth]

Facebook has dropped their full-window "popout" chat interface, which was
deprecated a while back (you could use it if you still had the URL laying
around, but the link to it was gone)...

and in the wake of that, I find that their instructions here:

  https://www.facebook.com/sitetour/chat.php

for setting up XMPP clients like Pidgin to connect to chat no longer work.

If you use XMPP to chat on Facebook, could you contact me offlist and let me
know if it a) works, b) just broke, or c) hasn't worked in a while?

If you work in Facebook Engineering, um... :-)

Cheers,
