SylkServer

There is a new release of SylkServer with a new application, SIP/XMPP gateway. By pointing the correspondent DNS records for SIP or XMPP services of a given Internet domain to the address of this gateway, any packet sent to or connection established to the gateway by one of the protocols is transparently translated into the other. The only setting required is the XMPP domain and its DNS entries.

The gateway can translate Presence, Short Messages, Chat Sessions and handle MUC sessions. This means that is possible to make a multi-party conference where SIP and XMPP end-points can join and see the participants list. The functionality is described in detail here here
