Hello All,
Can anyone point me to a site or repository where I can find a well written Package for IM -  Instant Messenger. Working on a project that desperately need one.

Thanks

Hi,

I don't know if it is "well written", but this package is fairly newly maintained: https://github.com/TracyWebTech/django-conversejs and uses converse.js which connects to a jabber server.

Regards,

Andréas

Depends on what you are trying to do but, you might want to consider a third party product for this;

Building your own instant messenger system properly is hard, if you can do this directly on the client (via web sockets, HTTP push/pull, flash stream with JS IPC etc) then you'll save yourself a whole ton of hassle. If you really want to keep it in-house, you could use Redis pub/sub for distribution and some sort of document store for persistence - MariaDB now has JSON columns :)
