===== XIFF =====

[[http://www.jivesoftware.org/xiff/|XIFF]] is an LGPL API for [[http://www.xmpp.org/|XMPP]], the IM protocol that [[http://jabber.org/|Jabber]] and [[http://www.google.com/talk/|Google Talk]] are based on.

==== Uses ====
XIFF is highly extensible, and can be used to build a variety of multi-user and presence-based applications that use an XMPP server.  Possible applications range from instant messengers to multiplayer games to shared whiteboarding applications to chat rooms.

==== Availability ====
[[http://www.jivesoftware.org/xiff/|XIFF]] can be downloaded from [[http://www.jivesoftware.org/xiff/|Jive Software's open source repository]]. The latest version is Beta 4.

=== AS2 and AS3 ===
Currently, XIFF only officially supports ActionScript 2.0, with an ActionScript 3.0 and Flex 2 compatible version under development (and available for testing from the Subversion repository).

==== Documentation ====
Documenation is included with the API in Beta 3, and seems to be missing in Beta 4. It will be re-included in the upcoming AS3 version.
