Sorry if this is off topic (this is for Jabber-based development, so I don't think it is), but it's development related.
I've written some software for the company I work for that is designed to help translate data between files, databases, XML, and so on. Data is read in from the source into a flexible data-store, and then witten back out. Adapters do the translation from file/database/xml->flexible-data-store and back again. I would like to write a Jabber adapter so that I can send data across a network. Jabbers extensibility seems to offer lots of flexibility (also looking at SOAP). After setting up Jabber, testing access via Muse and JabberBeans, scanning the Jabber Programmers Guide, and reading Programming Jabber, I am still at a loss with regards to extending the protocol Jabber uses. I've read that the "message" element may be able to have sub-elements (xml tags) in it. That might be enough, but I'd rather have a bit more control over the message. I also vaguely remember something about creating a DTD for new messages. Any help (or pointers to documentation/recommended reading) would be greatly appreciated.
