The final session I attended was Deploying & Scaling OCS Group Chat services.
In summary, MS have acquired a product which provides a chatroom facility (similar to IRC), but provides security (AD based) and logging. Whilst does require a separate server to run on than the OCS Messaging server, there is no additional application licensing required.
At present, it does require a separate client, but it does coexist niceley with the OCS client and there is plans to combine the two clients in future.
Some of the examples cited as potential benefit cases is project discussion rooms (because an archive of discussions is made) and global support teams, as members can come online and read the previous 18-24 hours discussions to see what issues/topics were discussed.
