[jdev] xmpp.org libraries: aSmack

Hi everybody,

I'd like to suggest to change the URL for aSmack - which is the Smack 
port for Android - to another repository. The current link is to Rene 
Treffer's initial asmack repository, which hasn't seen any updates in 
the last 2 years. I'd really like to thank Rene for his work here! It 
resulted in forming a small community of Android developers that have 
taken care of asmack at:

https://github.com/Flowdalic/asmack

asmack is now in sync with smack, has full file transfer support on 
Android (XEP-0065, XEP-0096, XEP-0047), there are compiled jars ( 
https://github.com/Flowdalic/asmack/downloads ) and we idle at ##smack @ 
freenode to help new users.

This version of aSmack is currently used by
- yaxim
- GTalkSMS

Oh, and it would be nice if you could add GTalkSMS to the lists of XMPP 
Apps. But since it's not really a XMPP client, a new section, maybe 
named "components", should be introduced. :)

Regards
  Florian
