Hi Jonathan, Thanks for posting your response. I wish to use Jabber as a transport for a custom client (infact a software we are building for a client) to query data from another client. So like an RPC but we wish to use XMPP to transport the request.
Is SOAP over XMPP what I should look at, or XML/RPC over XMPP? Thanks for your feedback.
