I think he was refering to the service provider, MSN as in MicroSoft Network, 
as opposed to the operating system.  There is already a large enough user base
and comments about the irc channel irc.freenode.net #asterisk, which is
accessable via many clients in many operating systems and even via web
browsers if you have a server with the appropriate software in place, or
applets local to your system.

To make the MSN chat meaningful you would have to get a bunch of people
to convert, and it is always much harder to get everyone to change the
way they currently do things to something new unless you can prove that
the new way is somehow superior.  MSN does not appear to be superior to
any other realtime chat network, so it will be a tough sell.

You can obviously go there yourself, and attempt to get others to follow
you, I just see that path as a difficult one, the easiest one would be
to follow the crowd and do what they are already doing, but innovators
never got anywhere by following the crowd.
