Another thought that comes to mind is that you could write a little
JabberStream that could be a drop in replacement for an bidirectional
stream (including SocketStream)...this would enable clients and servers
to work across the Jabber protocol and provide some nice capabilities
for detecting when the server is online (using presence detection).
This might come in handy for people that want/need to run servers on
machines that are intermittently connected to the internet or that
frequently change their point of connection (ip address).
You could for example operate a Comanche web server at some Jabber UID.
You could then have one or more gateway servers that would proxy a
request to http://www.jabberhttp.net/someuid@squeak.org/some/resource
into an http request sent through the Jabber system. You could do
similar things for any client/server protocol.
