The Day After (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - Back at work after an awesome four day weekend. It looks to be a light week since most of my project team is out of the office. Jabber-wise, the Marbles project needs some attention. |

Christmas presents (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - I'm happy to say that Jabber Inc. recently released some code that will help us build out the network of Jabber servers. One is the Server Connection Manager (or SCM) -- a rock-solid server-to-server component that can scale really high. Perhaps of greater long-term significance are the Jabber External Component Libraries (or JECL) -- a set of three C++ libraries that handle the low-level details of writing external server components (such as thread pooling, socket management, and XML parsing). In fact, SCM is written on top of JECL and provides a great example of how to write external components with JECL. |

Tigris frustration (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - Argh. The Jabber Tigris site has been down for almost a day now. I was hoping to dig out j2blog-agent and get it upgraded to the latest versions of bedrock and such. I guess it'll have to wait until the New Year -- since I'll have to rewrite it. One thing I would like to see in clients however, is a specialized editing window for posting blog stuff. |

Update (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - Well, it's been a while since anyone posted to this site. The reasoning is that people wanted a centralized place for Jabber news. That's well and good, but I think I'd like to start making updates now and then as a sort of journal of Jabber and what goes on behind the scenes. Not really news...just the evolution of the community from one person's perspective. |

Getting it Together (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - Dizzy and I started using this site as a good place to post news, but now that we're getting our act together over on jabber.org I'm posting a lot of news there. Right now it gets posted to dev.jabber.org but we may move the location in a future site clean-up. |

cool new stuff (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - I put together a news post on dev.jabber.org last night, describing some recent developments in the Jabber world. Among other things I noted integration of Jabber with another blogging system, as well as a new blog that bears watching by one of the pioneers of Jabber. So have a look. |

over the weekend... (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - Happy Monday, Jabber fans! Version 0.2 of the Jabberpy library was released over the weekend. This is a Python library for Jabber development created by Matt Allum, one of Jabber's growing UK contingent. Other recent releases include the JabberXM components for integrating Jabber into Mozilla applications. |

Jabber:JAX:Component (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - Piers Harding has created a Perl wrapper for Dizzy's JECL code. The wrapper, called Jabber::JAX::Component, is designed to help you write external Jabber server components in a flash. Although it's an alpha version, you Perl hackers might enjoy giving it a spin. |

Sept 5 (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - Good morning, Jabber fans. A few interesting emails popped up on JDEV -- one of them a few weeks ago (so I'm a little behind on my email) :). Dion Loy announced a Google agent by the name of "Joogle". Apparently, this allows one to search Google via a Jabber client. |

Sept 4 (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - Lots of interesting stuff going on in JabberLand today. Temas announced that the first code release of the next-gen Jabber routing hub is now publicly available. Also check out the jabelin.org site -- bare, but it's got the essentials. : |

Happy Labor Day! (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - It's a beautiful morning! Happy Labor Day. JDEV has been quiet over the weekend, a few rumblings about being able to log all the messages passing through a server, a QNX client request, and the annoucement of a new client -- Marvin. |

Brand new day (Jan 03 2002 18:01 GMT) - Well, a new CCM (Client Connection Manager) has gone up on Jabber.org -- it's reduced the load on the system by 50% or more. Theoretically, this should allow Jabber.org to host a couple of thousand concurrent users comfortably. There has been some discussion about the lack of centralization when it comes to Jabber news. |
