iq:browse: http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0011.html
iq:agents: http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0094.html

Both seem pretty simple, but both are depreciated.

I know pandion (http://www.pandion.be/) uses iq:browse to find services that
are available.

So is it possible to implement hooks that other plugins can tie into to
implement iq:browse? or is this something that has to be done through core?

You mean JEP-0011? Jeez... they really need to get with the times.

I'm really rusty on the browsing/agents stuff and don't really remember
how they work... but I wonder if they could be implemented in terms of
the existing disco support, without requiring any additional
configuration. I think "Jabber Browsing" uses a similar scheme to the
"identity" element from disco.

I don't know what spec iq:agents belongs to. That one must have passed
me by. Do you have a reference?

The list is configured to not munge the Reply-to header, so you have to
either remember to change the address or use the "Reply to all" command
instead of just "Reply". (and then trim out all of the addresses except
the list, naturally.)
