Evening folks, So I got my jabber gateway running with Yahoo and AIM running to
it. Its killer, but now I am trying to figure out the best way to manage all of
the possible communications with the system. Does anyone have any good
resources for doing this?

For example, someone IMs futodo, the system picks it up doesnt know who they
are and asks for a username and password. That would be simple, but I want to
make things module that I can easily add additionally features with out having
3000 lines of cfif cfelse or switches... Im thinking about an XML configuration
file, but that thought seems pretty overwhelming of all the various
possibilities.

Also, I am not exactly sure how to preserve state. So I could know that USER X
last message WAS... does CFMX7s events respect sessions? My gut would say no.
So would I have to manage the entire thing via a database. Which I really
really do not want to do.

This makes absolutely no sense I am sure! Im waiting for the flaming! Thanks
for any information.

B
