I hope not; I hope there is a culture change; but, hope is not a strategy so it's better to build alternative tools and learn how to use them

Ejabberd has been around since forever, and people have been saying that forever. Why would it suddenly happen now?

One thing I do agree with is that collaboration tools have to come first. We've become unable to do anything without a company/boss, completely atomized. Three or four programmers/designers who hang out should be able to do anything together. Put them in a downtown office with some MBA prick alternately yelling at them and kissing their asses, and they can build empires that they get to share 5% of.
