Hi Dominik,

First off all, i'd like to thank you for your fast feedback.
Now i can re-prioritize my tasks, so that the merge is at the top of my 
todo-list.

But there is one "issue" I am somewhat hesitant about, and which i'd like 
to avoid if possible.
Namely the fact that both the el-oyente and the el-boca plugins extend the 
jabber-plugin in an indirect manner
meaning that they both provide/extend the xmpp-functionality with 
pubsub-features.
However since the eloyente plugin actually triggers builds based on the 
pubsub-event, there is more to it than just recieving pubsub-events.
Therefore it could be that extending the jabber-plugin is a wrong approach.
Is this correct, or am i still missing something?

Also I have read that in order to publish a plugin, it should have a 
maintainer.
Does this imply that i am (or will become) the maintainer?
Or how are these things regulated?

Regards,
Jacobs Dennis.
