[JDEV] open source webclient on port 80 + moderated chat

[Jason Anderson]

David (Kuczek),

Can you use SSL through your proxy?  (Does your proxy support HTTPS?) 
I've been developing a Jabber client in Java for the past year that has 
good support for HTTPS proxies, but you must use SSL.  The client has 
not been released, since it's not nearly full-featured, but it's good 
for one-on-one chats, messages, and headlines, and can manage some 
strangeness of HTTPS proxies.  It's not a web client, it's standalone...

If you want a more mature standalone solution, perhaps one of the other 
client developers could work on supporting HTTPS proxies, because it's 
really just a sockets trick, as David W says.
