What are the URI/URL schemes for most IM networks?

I am looking for information abou URI schemes for most used IM/chat networks and phone.

Looking for URI for

  • phone number tel: - already solved, RFC 3966
  • yahoo ymsgr:addfriend?yourid
  • skype
  • msn
  • XMPP/Jabber/Google talk
  • sip:[email protected], also used by Microsoft Office Communicator

Note, I know that Skype supports callme:// but I don't know if this is specific to Skype or where is the syntax described.

  • SMS - sms:<number>
  • IRC - irc://<url>:[port|channel|password]
  • FaceTime - facetime:<number>
  • Skype - skype:<username|number>?[add|call|chat|sendfile|userinfo]
  • Hangouts (formerly Google Talk) - gtalk:[chat|call]?<email> com.google.hangouts:[chat|call]?<email>
  • Windows Live Messenger (formerly MSN) - msnim:[add|chat|voice|video]?<email>
  • Yahoo! Messenger - ymsgr:[sendim|addfriend|sendfile|call|callPhone|chat|im|customstatus|getimv]?<email|number>
  • AIM - aim:[goim|goaway|addbuddy]?<username>
  • QQ - mqq://<url>
