I've tryed Bria but in its web page it appears:

  IM Management 
  - Send instant messages to groups 
  - Use IM tabs for multiple IM conversations in one window 
  - See IM alerts for incoming IM 

It's not as a IM conferencing in a server side, but maybe enought...

Anyway, you can do a conference with IMC module and create contacts like "IM 
room 1", "IM room 2" in each client.

Of course, for now there is no way to know which users are joining a 
conference. There are two RFC's about it:

  - SIP Event Package for Conference State
       http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4575
  
  - SIP Call Control - Conferencing for User Agents
       http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4579

but AFAIK there are not yet client side implementation.
