I'm really puzzled as to why Gtalk uses Jabber, but is closed to other

STFW. This is a temporary situation, even as acknowledged by the IM
Federation.

I'd love to switch to using it, but I can't justify
that if it's a closed server that other jabber users have to be using
to talk to me. :( What does "we're working on it" mean? Most every
jabber server out there is cross compatible.
Again, STFW. I know it's in the archives, because I asked it (and wasn't the
first, just somehow missed it in the archives). The problem is the sheer
scale of Google's implementation. Nobody's run a Jabber server quite as
large scale or as visibly as Google.
Last thing, it would be really nice for you to add off-the-record
deniably authenticated strong encryption with perfect forward secrecy.
Many Jabber clients already implement this. Example:
