The JabberApplet project, quiet until this time :), is getting close to a
usable state.  Currently in the process of setting up a SourceForge project.
The applet has been tested using Microsoft 95, 98, 2000 and NT with Netscape
and IE browsers (bugs still being worked on).  The applet has also run once
with:
- Linux/Netscape (mixed reviews)
- Mac/IE (works pretty well)
- Mac/NS (mixed reviews)

I don't have access to a Mac or Linux machine at this time so if any
Mac/Linux users would take a quick look at http://java.jabber.org/ and let
me know if it works for you it would be much appreciated.  If it doesn't
work please send a quick explanation of the environment/problem and take a
quick snapshot of the java console sending it to dscott at jabber.com.

Misc Information:
a) Roster List Groups - Similar to JabberIM (expandable, corresponding
status displayed in text)
b) Roster List names - Friendly names displayed (only one group per JID
supported)
c) Subcription Acceptance - When a user subscribes to you <ok> adds user to
you roster, <cancel> rejects/unsubscribes
d) Chat Windows - Currently hard coded colors (but that's an accomplishment
considering AWT doesn't support colored textareas)
e) Subscription Initiation - not supported yet
f) Registration - not supported yet

note: JabberApplet previously called Jabblet on jabber.org projects page.
