Fwiw, in the following blog post I wrote about my experience with 
XMPP(Jabber) in PA using some GUI frontends from Nemo:
http://ruedigergad.com/2013/03/13/jabberxmpp-with-latest-plasma-active-on-nexus-7/

Please note that the required libs and GUIs are only installed by 
default on the PA rootfs tarballs for Nexus7 and ArchosG9 that you can 
get from here:
http://files.kde.org/plasma/active/3.0/images/
The latest development snapshots should come with everything needed for 
using XMPP.

Afaik, Mer now also ships with telepathy libs for ICQ. However, it won't 
be easily usable in PA via the approach described in my blog post yet.

Please note that this is highly experimental, primarily a proof of 
concept, and that the user experience is far from optimal. However, it 
used to work here.
