Jabber and Roller
This would be a much better post if I'd already developed the software, and this was an announcement. But I don't want to develop the software per se, I just want to use it. So I'm putting this idea out there in hopes that someone has already developed the software. My e-mail to the jabber-dev mailing list pretty much sums it all up.
Hello, My name is Matt Raible and I am a contributor on the Roller Weblogger project (http://rollerweblogger.org). I'm looking to add support for Jabber as a blogging client. Currently, we support the BloggerApi and MetaWeblogApi. What I'd like to know is if there is a project already that converts Jabber's XML files to XML-RPC calls - or if I could simply use an XSL stylesheet to transform and resend to my blog. Thanks, Matt
I'd love to add a Jabber Powered logo to my About page. I did some work with Jabber last year, basically just installing and configuring it - both very simple. The project I was on was also planning on adding support for creating new jabber accounts on-the-fly when a new user was created in our database. It's all XML, so it's probably all pretty easy. Anyway, I bought a Programming Jabber book and it's been collecting dust ever since. The cool thing about Jabber is if we setup a Jabber server (i.e. jabber.freeroller.net), then I think it'd be possible to blog via your favorite IM client. Please leave your thoughts and comments - and any links to anything that might already exists.

btw seeing I was planning on integrating some of the work that has already been done on Roller, it should be dead easy to convert.
The blojsim code is probably much more mature though.
