I2IM, also known as the Integrated Infrastructure for Instant Messaging Working Group, reports that "services like IRC and AOL Instant Messenger have been widely used by university people for university-related work, raising issues of authentication, authorization, privacy, and legal compliance. As IM becomes an increasingly popular alternative to email, users look to campus IT services for the same level of support and integration traditionally provided for central email services."

"Jabber and XMPP have had significant presence within academic circles for years," said Peter Saint-Andre, executive director of the JSF. "Through I2IM, we are working to make XMPP the federated standard for IM and perhaps other middleware functions across the academic landscape, centralizing IM communication on individual campuses and securely enabling them between different institutions."
