[JDEV] Are any C programmers out there?

[Sonic98]

I want to implement jabber on my website, but I can see that I will not be
able to get it to work the way I want it to, at least not with the current
open-source servers. The commercial ones have what I need, but they are
over-priced. What I would like to do is get with a c programmer, edit the
jadderd open-source sourcecode, make it so it will store user information on
a DB instead of XML file,and recompile it.
