[Bug 1432613] [NEW] Facebook and MSN shutting down

 

Public bug reported:

The march towards a future of silos carries on.

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/chat - the XMPP gateway for
Facebook will shut down on April 30.

http://ismsndeadyet.com/ - Microsoft are removing MSN endpoints.

I guess we need to correspondingly remove IM support for these services
& SRU it back.
