** Discussion **

[RLH] 2009-06-01:  Does Tcl have anything library wise that talks xmpp?

[tclxmpp]. New projects should probably use this library.

There is also a server-side daemon called [tclxmppd].

----

[DKF]: XMPP can also be used as a transport protocol for [SOAP], which is
helpful for when you have long-lived webservice communications between two
parties (especially when one party doesn't want to open incoming ports in their
firewall).
