You are misunderstanding a bit; Asterisk can use an XMPP server and
PubSub to *distribute* presence information among a cluster of Asterisk
servers. This information is not intended to be directly sent to XMPP
clients.
What i assume (please correct me if i am wrong) is that when a client
registers/deregisters, asterisk will update the presence info towards
the XMPP-server. Correct?
Yes, in order to let other Asterisk servers in the cluster know about it.
But otoh, what people would like to see is who is "on line".
And not only on the asterisk-server that they are connected to, but also
from other possible asterisk servers.
And furthermore, each registered user might want to set their
presencse-status to either free/busy/away/what-ever.
Asterisk does not support 'user' presence; it supports device and
extension presence. In some applications these can be used
interchangeably, but in others they don't match up very well.
Anyway, what i'm building is a central server and a number of
asterisk-boxes that act as proxy/six-iax-converter.
All of the registered users should be able to see the presence of all
the users on either proxy.
This is exactly what 'distributed device state' is all about, whether
you choose OpenAIS or XMPP/PubSub to distribute the information between
the servers.
