p2p distributed chat / instant messaging

I just had a look at some gnutella implementations and tried to find out how instant messaging would work in a p2p network.

Turned out most development teams use a rather classic approach. For example frostwire have their own IRC server and phex are using only direct peer to peer chat.

I'm curious: is it possible to utilize gnutella (or parts of it) to build a p2p chat / instant messaging network?
