the libgaim-based one hasn't been maintained at all, why do you think  
that would change then?

Well, I'm not really happy about C-based implementations, since  
they'd mean a lot of work, and libxml is kinda complicated to use. I  
don't think I'd be able to do that in 3 months (when I'd want to  
implement some XEPs, too).
