======================= = Poezio = ======================= Homepage: http://codingteam.net/projet/poezio Poezio is a console Jabber client. Its goal is to use anonymous connections to let the user join MultiUserChats. This way, the user don't have to create a Jabber account, exactly like people are using IRC. It doesn't handle contact list at all. ======================= Authors ======================= Florent Le Coz (louiz') (main developper) ======================= Contact/support ======================= Jabber ChatRoom: poezio@conference.codingteam.net Forum: http://codingteam.net/project/poezio/forum Report a bug: http://codingteam.net/project/poezio/bugs/add ======================= License ======================= Poezio is Free Software.

A: I like it this way. Q: Could you please make a nice ASCII art, so I could understand all the beauty and the complexity of this awesome software ?
