The first thing to do would be to continue the work I started (in the
git master branch, which will become Salut 0.5.x) on removing functionality
from lib/gibber that duplicates functionality in lib/ext/wocky (mostly with
#defines or thin wrappers). So far I've got rid of most of GibberXmppNode,
GibberXmppStanza, GibberXmppReader and GibberXmppWriter; using
WockyXmppConnection instead of GibberXmppConnection, and making use of
WockyPorter to dispatch stanzas to different bits of the application,
are probably the next steps.

(Gibber was basically a prototype for Wocky; it includes wider functionality,
but does some things that are unnecessary now that we have GIO.)

Another thing which could go in parallel is to examine the Jingle engine
in Gabble (src/jingle-*.[ch]) and see which bits, if any, rely on
Gabble-specifics.

Tomeu Vizoso and I have been working on Salut a bit recently, but can't
necessarily devote much time to it due to other projects, so we'd welcome
any help you can provide with it!
