XMPP is the Jabber protocol. It is also used for GoogleTalk
See here for official documentation or here for the Wikipedia page.
I am interested in it for use with FoxtrotGPS and IncidentView.
I want to pass specific bits of data along from a server to a laptop in the field.
For FoxtrotGPS I want to be able to show the locations of "friends". Aka "presence information" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presence_information
In IncidentView I want to be able to pass along the information from a 911 dispatch center to a rig.
Building pidgin
..because I am interested in libpurple for Windows (and pidgin runs on Windows)
On Linux
Downloaded and unpacked source from pidgin site.
apt-get build-dep pidgin cd pidgin ./configure build
