[JDEV] Jabber Presence response

[Richard Dobson]

Yes shouldnt be opening and closing connections lots as that will flood the
jabber network with presence packets, server admins wont be very happy about
that and neither will the persons contacts, very bad way of doing it, the
only possible way is to use a proxy like this person suggests that actually
keeps the connection to the server and so wont flood the network.
