[JDEV] ICQ Transport with Jabber 1.2

[Dennis Noordsij]

So far 'porting' transports have been relatively easy. 

Change the ehandler_something line to ehandler_something_new (where it 
registers itself) and add a paramater for the port to connect to.

Change 'jabber:server' to 'jabber:component:accept' (somewhere in the source 
as well)

Set up a <listen> section in jabber.xml and run jabberd

Run icqtransport 


:-)


For a good example, look at the Yahoo transport in the CVS. It has some code 
that differentiates between an old and a new jabber server, and you can see 
the differences. Then apply those differences to the other transports. Only 
thing so far is that I have hardcoded the ports into the transports (which 
ones to connect to to jabberd).
