me too :-)

I'm writing a GPL'ed Mac application framework called Pedestal, and Jabber
would be a great testbed application.  Since one of my applications is a
command shell, a logical place to start would be a command-line version
(automatically scriptable), probably using GUSI (a Berkeley sockets
library).  This would be compatible back to System 7.
