Just a quick note of clarification, there is a collision
in the name Ian G. 4 letters does not a message digest
make.
Gaim-otr as I understand it is authored by Nikita Borisov
and Ian Goldberg <otr@cypherpunks.ca>. It can be acquired
here:
http://www.xelerance.com/mirror/otr/
and here are some other links:

Just to confuse the issue I also am working on a private
instant messaging service which is markedly different, in
that I am taking a payment system and reworking it into an
IM system:

But I haven't got around to a download yet. And it's not
AIM compatible, as it works through its host payment system.
