[JDEV] sha1 algo

[Iain Shigeoka]

I'll make a shameless plug for my book, Instant Messaging in Java: the
Jabber protocols.  :)  It contains a full explanation of Jabber
authentication and the Java code to implement it.  Amazon doesn't have it
listed yet but Barnes and Noble does (www.bn.com) as well as directly
through the publisher, Manning Www.manning.com

You might also be able to go to your local bookstore and just browse through
it to get the info (it just got printed so I'm not sure how far its been
distributed).
