Andrew, Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but in ColdFusion 7, Adobe introduced Event Gateways that allow you to build custom chatbots (including XMPP for Jabber). The code is opensource, but this relies on the CF 7 engine (which isn't open). Here are a series of articles on this: http://www.forta.com/blog/index.cfm?mode=e&entry=1737 http://www.forta.com/blog/index.cfm?mode=e&entry=1738 http://www.forta.com/blog/index.cfm?mode=e&entry=1740 http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/imgateway.html I haven't personally worked with these, but I suspect the PHP implementations of XMPP libraries (http://www.jabber.org/software/libraries.shtml) make it relatively simple to set up server event gateways to handle these. I think the real stumbling block is developing the AI to respond to user requests (but if it's a simple search, it shouldn't be much more than responding to the event).
