[jadmin] set presence of another user

[kakomon at gmail.com]

Hi all!
fresh subscriber here and i think i'm already asking some blasphem question:

it is possible to set the presence (show and status) of another user ?

i mean: do some jabber server provide this feature via a command line script ?
or maybe the xmpp protocol has a way to do it ?

and, if not:
if i hack, say, the jabberd2 server to do it:
will the client (say, gaim) reflect the status change, once it's done ?

i'm talking about an easy way to do something already seen with wildfire + asterisk-im + spark;
in my understanding, they have extended the xmpp protocol, right ?

i was thinking that if you have asterisk and, say, ejabberd, on the same machine,
asterisk, once received a call, could exec something like "ejabberdctl set presence <virtual host> <user> busy 'at phone with n. 12345677'".

ok and even if the jabber client will not be aware itself about the status change, could you point me in the right direction to write such a dirty hack ?

my arch of choice would be gaim 2 beta 5 + jabberd2 with sqlite storage and ldap auth

sorry if posting in the wrong list


thank you very much !
