I'm wanting to use Jabber to do cool things. Right now, I have a basic "dump to Jabber" script along the lines of Unix's mail command, but I'm wanting to look into both making a consistantly-running bot and dealing with presence.

I've gotten so far with Net::XMPP, but not really into the presence parts, which I think it's failing at. Most of the modules are many years old and marking themselves as depricated. The CPAN page for Net::XMPP2 says that AnyEvent::XMPP is the way to go, but CPAN has never heard of it.

Today, on the corner of 2009, what is the state-of-the-art means of programming Jabber? (I don't want to go back to the RFC, but I can if I have to.)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
