[jdev] Question about expat as XML parser for Jabber client

It's not necessarily the opening <stream>-Tag, since Stanzas are usually 
sent over an XML Stream without newlines between them; so 'line 1' is 
the whole document in the worst case. I suggest dumping everything you 
receive from the server to a file and having a look at it.
