= Wokkel =

Wokkel is collection of enhancements on top of the [http://www.twistedmatrix.com/ Twisted] networking framework, written in Python. It mostly provides a testing ground for enhancements to the Jabber/XMPP protocol implementation as found in Twisted Words, that are meant to eventually move there.

Currently, Wokkel provides the following enhancements on top of Twisted Words:

 * A mechanism for easier implementation of [http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/ XMPP Enhancement Protocols] (XEPs) as so-called ''subprotocols''.
 * XMPP Client and server-side component support, that eases development and supports subprotocols.
 * Subprotocol implementations for:
   * Generic presence, roster and message handling.
   * Service Discovery ([http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0030.html XEP-0030]), service side.
   * Publish-Subscribe ([http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html XEP-0060]), client and service side.
   * Software Version ([http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0092.html XEP-0092]), service side.
 * Data format implementations for:
   * Data Forms ([http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0004.html XEP-0004])
   * User Tune ([http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0118.html XEP-0118])
   * User Mood ([http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0107.html XEP-0107])
