to claim your account, run /var/scripts/xmpp-register, type in a password and you're set!
giovanni@southlondon:/var/scripts$ /var/scripts/xmpp-register

now, you can use that xmpp address to log in using your favourite xmpp client. if you don't have a favourite already, check out gajim for windows/linux or conversations on android.
our server is mostly compliant with the standards, so hopefully everything will work fine.
