Re: [Gm-devel] Xerces

[Henrik Abelsson]

The code i'm writing is going to be "open sourced", but i have no idea 
under what license exactly. I'm going to lobby for the (L)GPL, BSD or 
something like that, but who knows? It won't be up to me, I'm just a 
code slave :)

In any case, the jabber code is getting better, I'm going to commit it 
to the GM tree as soon as i can work out the licence. Writing a GM 
protocol wrapper should be trivial, and it'll be really exciting to 
support jabber. I don't think we should drop the other protocols though, 
as nice as jabber is, i think it's a fundamentally bad idea to implement 
protocols on the server side. (Look at all the problems they've had with 
AOL blocking jabber servers)

We should get working on the encryption code any year now too :)
