     2 This is a module for mcabber to send service discovery requests.

     3 

     4 It provides mcabber command 'disco'. To use this module just

     5 load it - then command will be available.

     6 

     7 With this you can discover abilities of various jabber entities,

     8 like servers, transports etc. Note, that it can only provide

     9 information, what to do with this information (eg register to

    10 entity, that supports it) is not this module's task. Note also,

    11 that if you want to get abilities of some buddy, you should send

    12 disco request to specific resource of that buddy (because of this

    13 this command supports extended notation ./resource), if you'll

    14 send request to bare jid, you'll get reply from server, that

    15 serves that jid.
