It is - far too complex to be implemented in one program with the Unix philosophy in mind. - But like the web, you have to deal with it. It is the only open - and widely used instant messaging protocol on the internet. - Its extensibility is the main reason that an implementation in a single - program is nearly impossible. This talk described an approach to master this problem. - -<video width="600" height="338" controls="" style="display:block;margin:0 auto" poster="http://dl.sta.li/slcon/2015/slcon-2015-07-klenkow-simple_jabber.png"> - <source src="http://dl.sta.li/slcon/2015/slcon-2015-07-klenkow-simple_jabber.webm" type="video/webm"> - <a href="http://dl.sta.li/slcon/2015/slcon-2015-07-klenkow-simple_jabber.webm">slcon-2015-07-klenkow-simple_jabber.webm</a> -</video> - - -(11:30-12:00) *Finite state document processing*, Manu Raster - -> Mainstream XML processing techniques wastefully consume time - and memory for example in file format conversions popularly - known as 'save as...'.
