[JDEV] The Jabber Project

[Oliver George]

Absolutely, I personally see this possible documentation as being 
produced as a kind of FAQ of jabber functionality/programming information. 

Rules of engagement...
1. think of a question
2. check the FAQ
3. If the FAQ lets you down go to the mail group. 
4. If you go the the mail group you are obliged to contribute gleaned 
information back to the FAQ.

I use the term FAQ loosely there,

regards, Oliver.
