Well, that certainly is an option; but I am wishing something which has already been tested in field. I am thinking if the Jabber server could simply act as a gateway for HTTP transfers between Alice and Bob. I did some googling and found terms such as "Jabber HTTP Polling", "BOSH", "XMPP over BOSH" (though I am afraid I haven't looked a bit in the details). Could these come to the rescue? :) Regards, Ajay On Wed, Mar 28, 2012 at 10:34 AM, Garrett Kuchta <[email protected]> wrote: > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XDCC > > On Tue, Mar 27, 2012 at 11:48 PM, Ajay Garg <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Thanks Garrett for the reply. > > > > But I am afraid it's gone over my head (I am sorry, I only understand > > English). > > What's "CDDC-esque"? > > > > Regards, > > Ajay > > > > > > On Wed, Mar 28, 2012 at 10:11 AM, Garrett Kuchta <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> > >> Just do this on the client-side.
