[jdev] Re: newbie Q: how can I use jabber to share file access P2P?

[Chris Chen]

I want to comment on Muse.  Currently, development has stopped for  
Muse.  All new development effort is on the new API called "Feridian"  
that will replace Muse.  Although the current CVS version of Feridian  
is actually workable and can connect with no problems, I have yet to  
release a distribution for it.  I plan to do it soon.

Thanks,
Chris
