Comm Server

[Monte Goulding]

Hi Simon

The Jabber Client was all the work of David Bovill. I'm not sure what he's
doing with it now but Jabber is a relatively simple XML protocol anyway. If
you go to jabber.com you can find info on the protocol.

Basically all you need is scripts to parse XML coming in and going out on a
stream rather than as a document.

There is a number of open source servers that you can setup or you can use
one of the public servers.

I did some testing with David and still have the library somewhere but don't
think I should give it out unless he says it's OK. It was before the new
regEx so perhaps it would be good to start from scratch to develop an open
source library???? I'm interested if you are.

Cheers

Monte
