I tend to disagree. After the introduction of Google Hangout and
announcement of changes to their XMPP service [1], I see more and more
connection issues to their GTalk platform.

I can recommend a Jabber server run by a hackerspace in Germany:

Host: jabber.chaostreff-dortmund.de
Port: 5222 (TLS encrypted)

You can register a Jabber-ID via in-band registration with
youruser@ctdo.de. If you've issues with this server I can provide a
shortcut to the admin-team of this one.

I can also add a Jabber-ID on etherkiller.de for everyone interested,
but this one does not provide in-band registration. It's rock-solid, I
use it daily ;-)
