To add to Elliot''s point: it seems like whenever anyone approaches
network
programming, the first thing they do is a chat system. It would be really
nice to have one in EM. I was actually thinking we might use some code from
the various XMPP-on-Ruby projects and build a Jabber server. Any interest?

(I already wrote an event-driven library that can parse protocol data that
is composed of XML stanzas, as with XMPP and XACML. Neither REXML nor
Ruby/libxml turned out to be capable of this.)
