[JDEV] I have interested in making a jabber client.

[Peter Saint-Andre]

The MIO API is for server components. You don't need to use that if
you're just writing a Jabber client. All that a Jabber client needs to
do is make a TCP connection on port 5222 of the Jabber server and send
valid XML. For example, first you need to initiate the stream header:

<stream:stream to='yourjabberserver' xmlns='jabber:client'
xmlns:stream='http://etherx.jabber.org/streams'>

Then you can authenticate with the server:

<iq id='A1' type='set'>
  <query xmlns='jabber:iq:auth'>
    <username>yourusername</username>
    <resource>someresource</resource>
    <password>yourpassword</password>
  </query>
</iq>

Then you can send presence:

<presence/>

And so on -- see the Jabber Protocol Overview for detailed information
about all the XML you can send and receive to perform various functions.
The URL is: http://docs.jabber.org/general/html/protocol.html
