33 # Background. I experimented with running 2 xmpp clients, in which case
34 # I could connect up to a daemon running irc on the local system, which
35 # I do anyways, and I would not need to run another irc client on the
36 # main profanity server. Buut, the problem is that messages to a chat
37 # room don't go to the other client (well, if you reconnect, they will
38 # display because of mam, but they don't go into the log.) That is no
39 # good.
