I've taken a glance at the code involved ; it sounds like you're talking about the removal of the entire 'chat' category for accounts from goa. Is this the case, Debarshi?
I would personally be disappointed to see that go away, as a user of the protocols, because IRC is Fedora's interactive support venue, and because I think XMPP has value as a federated communication mechanism that deserves more prevalence.
