Don't forget the problems of networking. Networking always has speed of
light and latency issues. Darn. Now where did I put my low-level warp
field ;-)
OTOH, "Programming Jabber" has just landed on my desk, and looks quite
interesting. Since I know nothing about jabber (other than 'it's like
instant messaging and soap and rpc and all that stuff') I look foward to
finding a bit more out about all this stuff.
Someone kick me and remind me to write a review in a couple of weeks.
Later.
Mark.
