Old description:

> The Boisterous Otter project requires that we offer support though
> webchat [0].

> [0]

New description:

 When doing support, there are some situation where it would be better to
 switch to a communication medium with lower latency than email. Having a
 way to do text based chats with our users sounds like a good idea.

 This will be implemented by using an XMPP server allowing anonymous
 connections from a web interface on one side, and have the support team
 get accounts.

 Users will be given access to chat-based support on an invitation basis.
 Support assistants will be able to create invitation “tokens” and will
 give out URLs to users when they need to.

 This is part of [org/sponsors/SponsorO SponsorO]'s deliverables.
