[JDEV] Jabber Web-Pager App(lette)?

[Al Sutton]

Michael,

I've played with this idea before and I have come to the conclusion it's 
possible, and I could do it with the java libraries I've written. It's just 
a matter of getting the time.

If you feel like having a go my libraries are at http://www.alsutton.com/
