Description : open implementation of the Lotus Sametime Community Client protocol
The heart of the Meanwhile Project is libMeanwhile. This library provides the
basic Sametime session functionality along with the core services; Presence,
Messaging, and Conferencing. This extensible client interface allows additional
services to be added to a session at runtime, allowing for simple integration of
future service handlers for whiteboard, screen-sharing, and file transfer.
Rather than design a custom client around libMeanwhile, we turn to the excellent
and very popular Open Source project Gaim. Gaim provides a flexible framework
for any number of client protocols, and integrates multiple messaging services
into a single application. The Meanwhile plugin for Gaim provides presense
tracking, customizable user status, messaging, conferencing, and will soon
include a user directory.
I will be packaging both the library as the gaim plugin (up to when it becomes a
standard protocol of gaim).
