well, I can't say that any of this is far from true. But is there any
requirement we have that esiliati.org is missing?

I think what made the difference was commitment. Although no realistic
project is going to ever promise that any service will last _forever_,
esiliati.org gave us a commitment of working to keep it functional to
our needs as they care about XMPP a lot, and that XMPP is not easily
going away.

I have no strong objections, too.
