Oh man... at one point I really thought I would get this package in good
shape, but after Roland's poke I merged from upstream and noticed there
were a LOT of changes which made my packaging work pretty much useless,
so it got put way back in the TODO list. My mistake for not updating the
bug to reflect this!
Please consider this package free for the taking!

As I said, the latest work in the git repo [0] is unfortunatelly very
out-of-date with regards to recent changes upstream, so I don't think it
can just be uploaded as-is. I imagine someone with a bit more time and
dedication than myself could get it in shape in a few hours/days. Please
feel free to give it a try!

IMHO a different group sounds more appropriate, but the pkg-xmpp people
should probably be asked if their interested. Better some
slightly-off-topic team working on it than nobody at all! ;)
