[JDEV] Possible values for <iq>'s id attribute

[Peter Saint-Andre]

Hmmm, I'm wondering why you aren't getting an XML stream back from the server.
Usually you will see something like this on connecting:

SENT: <stream:stream to="jabber.org" xmlns="jabber:client"
xmlns:stream="http://etherx.jabber.org/streams">

RECV: <?xml version='1.0'?><stream:stream
xmlns:stream='http://etherx.jabber.org/streams' id='39FDF1B5' xmlns='jabber:client'
from='jabber.org'>

SENT: <iq type="set" id="JCOM_86"><query
xmlns="jabber:iq:auth"><username>stpeter</username><digest>1c8148a1a959e8e0119680e384c3831cc8ebfe9b</digest><resource>Winjab</resource></query></iq>

Are you getting a stream back from the server?
