Even if you do adapt it as a plugin (which would be cool for whatsapp users but would require changing language) some features of whatsapp I seem to recall are not supported with the internal IM thingy
Which feature would those be?
Note:I'm not arguing, but rather curious as to what features those are.
I wouldn't mind porting to another language - I'm pretty proficient at both java and python, and don't mind some hacking in C.
In any case, my request to view the source was to contribute to the current Java tree for now; porting would have to wait.

I would love to remember, its just I read it somewhere.
I just found the post I read and, ironically, it was from you :P just proves the internet is funny
Yes, some protocols are already implemented this way in the N900.
I belive the avahi/bonjour plugin in particular, is a pidgin plugin, being loaded this way.
Multi-person IM sessions are supported on XMPP, but I can't remember if I've ever had one on the N900.
File sending is missing from the N900 chat UI.
I don't know what you mean by broadcast, but if it means "sending to everyone", there's probably some specific account that you send the message to (ie: everyone@s.whatsapp.com), and it gets re-sent to everyone by the WA server.
I'm just guessing though, this will probably be verifiable by sniffing :P
Those people who angrily and smugly point the people with problems to the first post, might want to read the first pages again themselves, because:
1. Peterbjornx removed those instructions from the first post.
2. Peterbjornx clarified that registration from PC is only needed when using icedtea instead of oracle jre. It is not needed with oracle's jre.
3. Because he provided oracle jre deb, he did 1.

Then we must wait until he is back from the land of croissant as the source is not available I think
