Sending Google Talk and Facebook message via R with XMPP protocol

I personally wish to have a XMPP API for R, so that after time consuming simulation my R process may notify me on Facebook or Google Talk.

Email might be a choice, but I think it will be more convenient to notify the user through XMPP message in the future.

Is there any well known XMPP API for R?

I have published a R package, RMessenger, on CRAN to send Google Talk and Facebook message via R with XMPP protocol.

If you find a bug or want some new features, please discuss with me at https://github.com/wush978/RMessenger/issues.

Thanks

I myself write a toy XMPP Client for R named RMessenger (project: https://github.com/wush978/RMessenger , package: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/11900271/Wush-R-pkg-src/RMessenger_0.1.tar.gz). The engine is a C library, libstrophe (http://strophe.im/libstrophe/), and I wrap it with Rcpp. So far it works on my machine and server (both Ubuntu). I tried to port it to windows, but failed. I am inexperienced to build Rcpp package on Windows.

This package only sends message to some XMPP service including facebook and google talk. Maybe I'll expand its feature such as sending attachment, or change the engine to google's Jingle++ (after understanding the License issue).
