95% I'd say, each chat message is the same sioc : Post format as cimba.

I'm using dct : creator as well as mblog : author until cimb v next is
finalized.  I dont quite have all the nice follow your nose of cimba ie

webid -> workspace -> sioc Space -< Channel -> Posts

But I do use

webid -> workspace

and I'm thinking up a way to differentiate from Channels and Chat, so I may
just use ChatChannel.  Work in progress

It's designed to compliment cimba
