<p>Openfire provides full support for the
<acronym title="Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol">XMPP</acronym>
protocol defined by <a href="http://www.xmpp.org/specs/rfc3920.html">RFC 3920</a> and
<a href="http://www.xmpp.org/specs/rfc3921.html">RFC 3921</a>. In addition to full
XMPP support, Openfire also provides support for numerous extensions to XMPP
that are defined through the
<acronym title="XMPP Enhancement Proposals">XEP</acronym> process at
<a href="http://www.xmpp.org">xmpp.org</a>.  This document provides a
summary of that protocol support and is updated for every Openfire
release.</p>
