I'm curious if anyone has attempted to run the Fastpath plugin for Openfire
within sipXecs?

For those unfamiliar, Fastpath is a system of Anonymous Chat Queuing
accessed through a "Live Chat" button.  Currently, the fastpath plugin
implements a no longer supported XMPP Extension (Was deferred by the XMPP
Standards Foundation).  It's a fairly capable system that allows for
customizable welcome forms and routing inbound chats to a queue of agents.

Seems like this would be a terrific addition to a "Unified" communication
portfolio.

It would be great to have a "Support Queue" defined once and they field both
inbound phone calls AND chats...

The problem is, today's fastpath REQUIRES a fastpath capable client on the
agent side.  Dealbreaker for sipXecs users that may be sitting at Bria or
their cell phones...

Considering the Deferred status of
XEP-0142<http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0142.html>,
I was envisioning a replacement that could replace fastpath and work with
any standard XMPP client for the agents.

It could exist as a XMPP bot that keeps track of your chat queue
participation (most likely through your existing presence system).  Inbound
chats are sent to the bot from an temporary jid that is created for the
anonymous web chatter.

I'd love to brainstorm with anyone familiar with the sipXecs Openfire
setup.  I truly feel "Live Chat" is a killer addition to this platform.
