Hello

XMPP4R is a Ruby library for the Jabber/XMPP instant messaging protocol.

Version 0.3 brings a lot of new features and fixes. The release has been  
delayed by a redesign process, thus the class and module names of  
additional features have changed. Updaters are advised to read the  
included UPDATING document.

From the ChangeLog:

- SRV lookup capability in Client#connect
- Stringprep support for JIDs
- TLS & SASL support
- Basic Dataforms support
- Multi-User Chat Helpers
- Helpers for File-Transfer, SOCKS5 Bytestreams, In-Band Bytestreams
- Roster helper has modified subscription-request semantics (see  
Roster#add\_subscription\_request\_callback)
- A lot of features have renamed namespaces (see UPDATING file)
