The jabber client I did was pretty bare bones. I am still not sold on
the whole jabber scheme (especially their "resources") and as such never
even thought about tackling it a year or more ago when I did it.
Jabber is by far the least used Fire service (with IRC bringing up a
close 2nd) and as such it gets almost no attention.
