Galago is a desktop presence framework, designed to transmit presence
information between programs. To put it in simpler terms, it takes
information on who is online and their away/idle states from an instant
messenger (such as gaim) or other similar programs and lets other
programs (such as Ximian's Evolution) to make use of it.
The advantage of such a framework is that it brings your programs closer
together. When you receive an e-mail from a friend who is in your buddy
list, you'll be able to immediately tell their online status, for
example.

pymsn is a rewrite of libivy (http://hybrid.tuxfamily.org/ivy), during
this rewrite the usage of Python asyncore and asynchat were dropped in
favor of the pymsn.gio library based on Glib GIOChannel. This change
enabled easy integration with the Glib main loop.
pymsn also gained msnp2p support for display pictures and custom smileys
as well a Http Polling transport and proxy support.

Net::XMPP is a convenient tool to use for any perl script that would
like to utilize the XMPP Instant Messaging protocol. While not a client
in and of itself, it provides all of the necessary back-end functions to
make a CGI client or command-line perl client feasible and easy to use.
Net::XMPP is a wrapper around the rest of the official Net::XMPP::xxxxxx
packages.
