Yeah, my specific component represents 1 (or a few) bots which
themselves may have extremely large rosters. So writing it as a
component allows me to control the whole roster/presence process in a
scaleable, fault-tolerant way. I'm using ejabberd to back it up.
Though again, the goal is to create a general framework that makes
component (not necessarily bot) creation easy... or at least
easier. It will probably never be as easy as writing a simple
client using xmpp4r-simple, but at least you won't have to reinvent
the wheel... as I'm having to do.
Who are the gnip folks and what are they doing that is so relevant?
