I'm a newbie to Jabber and I've been trying to understand the code, protocol etc. As a result, I've now got several questions whose answers I cannot find in the docs. Could someone please enlighten me on one or more of the following - 1) What is the purpose of the URL "http://etherx.jabber.org/streams"; and why is it hardcoded into the source? I'd have thought it should be in the config file (jabber.xml) or #define'd. I'm also wondering what "etherx" suppose to mean. I know there was a mailing list, but it seems dead now and there are no description what the etherx project was. 2) "[EMAIL PROTECTED]/" is also hard-coded? Like the etherx URL, I would have thought this email_addr/jid should be encoded in the config file or #define'd. I dunno, I get nervous when I run code which contacts other servers without my explicit approval. 3) What is the C macro SINGLE is used for? Is it related to compiling the server statically? If not, how would I compile jabber statically? 4) I'm also interested in the reasoning behind the command-line parsing code. It seems like a lot of work to push it into a hash-table. Why not use getopt() or something like that? Can someone please answer these questions.
