But that's not really the point of what I'm doing :-)

If I wanted to simply get my server done then I'd probably take Jabber and modify it for my needs. But that's not very fun.

I'm precisely writing it to have problems like the one I had and learn how to solve them. At the moment, I don't know how to properly write a server that uses XML for communication. I want to learn how. Just plugging a module that does it for me takes out the fun of it.

I also want to try some design ideas I have in mind. Some of them look like they wouldn't fit very well in the design of existing servers.
