Yesterday, Google flipped the switch and moved Jaiku to App Engine. And today, Google is open sourcing the Jaiku code base under the Apache License 2.0. . The code is available as JaikuEngine on Google Code Project Hosting as of now. Anyone can set up and run their own JaikuEngine instance on Google App Engine.
As Google will no longer be actively developing jaiku.com, the future of Jaiku is in our hands now. Point your browser to the project and join the jaiku engine-discuss group to learn more and get started. Users of the client may have noted already that the current build will no longer connect to the server now that Jaiku is hosted on App Engine.
From now on, you also need no invitation if you want to use http://www.jaiku.com, the website registration is open again.
