[JDEV] Re: Usable clients

[temas]

1)
Current clients that are 0.7 working:  Cabbar, Zabber
Current clients that are 0.7 mostly feature complete:  jnixtest

Cabbar is under the cabbar module
Zabber is under the tcl-zabber module
and jnixtest comes with the libjnix (required by cabbar).

2)  Like the other replier said, some clients already have a chat by msg
option.

3)  Hopefully I can push our security ideas into 0.8 (very soon eek) or 0.9
What we are looking at as our option is having all xml streams be over an SSL
stream.  That includes client->server (that depends on the clients implementing
it) and server->server.  We have also pretty much decided that it is the clients
duty to allow users to sign (PGP) their msgs, much like email.

If you want to talk about security issues with us security at jabber.org is the
mailing list, join it.
