[JDEV] Beginners Questions

[steve becerra]

Hello, I would like to develop a Jabber client using Macromedia Director and 
it's programming language 'Lingo', but I am not quite sure where to start. I 
have developed a Shock Wave chat client that communicates with the 
Macromedia test server, but how do I communicate with a Jabber server? Do I 
have to install one locally or can I just send data to say "www.jabber.org"?

Is anyone out there familiar with Lingo? And if so, do you have any idea of 
what it would take to write a script to transform the Jabber protocol into 
the format Director needs it in?

As you can see I am totaly new to Jabber and any help would be greatly 
appriciated.

Steve
