Why not use the GLib for jabber2 ?
It has nice abstract types for lists, hashes ...
(see libjabber/src/genhash.c)
Plus nice portability/utility functions, and
handy macros (g_return_if_fail() kind of macros
can save life by ensuring preconditions and writing
a nice log message if it fails, instead of silently
returning)
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/glib/index.html
If there's no strong reason against it, it could
be progressively used in libxode/libjabber/jabber2 ...
(I would like to cleanup most of the code in a GLib
fashion :)
Or at least some ideas could be reused (like
those preconditions checks ...)
It also is a good example of programming,
take a look at the sources :)
