[JDEV] Re:Creating a presence server component?

[Sylvain Roberdeau]

Hi Philippe,

    I'm interested in your raw code.
    If it's too large send it me directly, but it will be more usefull to post
it it this newsgrourp.
    Actually, I'm testing a JSM module to send specific message to a dedicated
Perl service. The objective is to detect correctly user's presence and status
and to avoid to send unusefull messages (ex. presence send to roster, iq for
JUD,...).
    But an example in Java can direct to a good start.
