Hi,
Does Djabberd support any sort of file transfer services (like
Jingle)? If not,
where would I start to implement the extension? The project I'm
working will
require sending large files via XMPP, and I'd prefer to do it in perl.
Isn't jingle a client-to-client protocol?
Correct.
I'm not sure what special
support a server would need to enable jingle. Would you mind providing a
little more information about what you're trying to do?
The only I can think of on the server side is a media relay to be used
for NAT traversal in some situations.

Both of you are exactly right. I didn't quite understand that when I
first sent the email. Now, my current plan is to create a perl wrapper
for libjingle using SWIG. Once I'm done with that, I'll start my work on
the project proper; an implementation of FIPA agents for a multiagent
system. I'm planning on using a XMPP server to relay the messages between
various agents as part of the system. I hope to use this system as a base
for several bioinformatics tools. I'm currently a graduate student
studying bioinformatics (who came from more of a biology standpoint), so
my understanding of software development is still underwhelming, so thanks
for the help!
