[asterisk-users] Asterisk Openfire Asterisk-IM Plugin Performance Observation

[Al lists]

i used it on one server a little while ago.
my primary use was ability to show each user's status on spark.
i did not get consistence results, phone status was not accurate.
and did not try it after that, maybe its fixed in newer versions.
