As you well know, the IM server in ZCS will be removed in version 8.

There is no other news about version 8 until the Product Portal is updates, for the future of IM you should read some of the forum threads and the bug reports on the subject.

Actually...no, even know.

I really want to keep zimbra, but this is hard to explain to everyone they won't be able to use internal messaging anymore. Obviously "Facebook" is not the option as Social Zimlet is proposing. I'm sad.

Please tell me, what else can I do?

Who said that was the case? The IM Server may but going but not necessarily the option to use IM services from ZCS.

As I said earlier, read some of the forum threads on the topic and see what the bug/RFE reports have to say on this matter - hold your nerve and wait for ZCS 8.

Sorry, but I don't understand at all what infrastructure ZCS 8 would implement.

Are you saying it would come with a third party messenger?...does it would rely onto a server on internet?...does it would be private, say, into a closed platform? (no facbk, no twitter involved)

Man, is very difficult to hold up if I don't know what to expect...don't you?
