A few years ago I found information about new IM protocol - Jabber. As that was (and still is?) the first | |||
fully open protocol and the idea about distributed IM network seemed very interesting I started to use it. | |||
After some time, using Jabber client was not enough for me. I decided I want to have my own server installed. | |||
About 20 months ago I decided I can use my experience and knowledge to develop my own implementation | |||
of Jabber/XMPP server. That was start of Tigase project. | |||
At the moment Tigase projects includes not just Jabber/XMPP server but also dedicted XML parser and | |||
test suite with built-in scripting language. | |||
