dAmn (deviantART messaging network) is the name of the real-time chat system implemented on DeviantART version 4. It is based on a proprietary protocol and chat server application, and is not compatible with other chat systems. The client end is either a Flash or Java application, or Mozilla extension for server communication, coupled with a JavaScript backend to handle the messages. Only hours after the release of dAv4 (deviantART version 4) and dAmn, the protocol had been reverse engineered and publicized. The same night, a first working Perl client was made available. Today users have a choice of clients for various operating systems, written in different languages, and with more or improved features over the official client. EXTERNAL LINKS
