wiuwiu.de XMPP seems to quit its service at the end of the month. Obviously there has not been an official, public announcement, yet, but their users have been informed via XMPP messages.

If you're looking for another XMPP service, trashserver.net is happy to serve you.

For registration, send an email to: xmpp@trashserver.net and I'll create an account for you.

In case you're having network trouble when connecting to trashserver.net:

trashserver.net:
5.1.72.136
2a07:6fc0:508::136

also valid for upload.trashserver.net
