There's been a fair bit of discussion in the last couple of
days on the Python SoC mailing list about how useful it would
be to have an XMPP server in Python
Why would having one written in Python in particular be useful to
you?
/K
1) because many of us work in Python environments and would like to
continue to do so
2) because Python kicks ass and thus there are many Python programmers
and thus once we get the framework in place is likely to be used and
extended
3) because this is a noticeable deficiency in Python's otherwise
excellent support of Internet protocols
May I suggest that instead of a full server, you implement a XMPP
router instead?
The difference for me is that a XMPP router does not have a session
manager. It only has:
* S2S: for federation;
* XEP-0114 and XEP-0225 support.
This would allow anyone to write a component in any language they
want, and the make it available in the XMPP network without having to
run a full server.
This is something that I think does not exist, and that many people
could use.
