[JDEV] Fun With Jabber article: Headline Delivery with RSS

[DJ Adams]

Hello all

I've just uploaded another "Fun..." article:

http://www.pipetree.com/jabber/headlines.html

which is intended as a follow-on article to those pointed to on
http://docs.jabber.org in that it introduces a few more Jabber concepts:

- the "headline" message type
- extending Jabber messages with <x>
- the 'jabber:x:oob' namespace
- more use presence subscription

What I deliberately haven't included in this article is any real reference
to rosters, or in fact that this sort of service is best achieved with a
component (transport). Both of these concepts I want to leave to other
articles (having a closer look at rosters, and converting this script into a
component - to underline the differences); I think there's only so much that
a single article can introduce in one go.

I'd be delighted to receive any comments you might have.

cheers
