This allows us to easily integrate asterisk with +jabber. The Asterisk Jabber Interface is provided by res_jabber. res_jabber +allows for asterisk to connect to any jabber server via the standard client +protocol or also as a simple client. Several simple functions are exposed to +the dial plan, jabberstatus, jabbersend, and soon jabberrecv. res_jabber is also used +to provide the connection interface for chan_jingle. +The maintainer of res_jabber is Matthew O'Gorman <mogorman@digum.com> or +mog_work on irc or prefered mogorman@astjab.org over jabber. |
