The Eclipse Communication Framework defines a number of APIs that can be implemented by adopters and add-in providers. The project itself provides implementations of some existing networking protocols. This page is intended to list all known providers, official or third-party, along with some basic information about the provider such as its runtime requirements and licensing.
Contents
Providers

XMPP (peer-to-peer file sending)
The XMPP protocol has an extension for peer-to-peer file transfer (XEP-0096).
See XMPP below for XMPP provider information.
Presence (org.eclipse.ecf.presence)
IRC
The IRC protocol is a popular chatting protocol that allows a group of people to discuss about something together as well as one-to-one communication via private messages.
