== Background ==

XCAP protocol allows a client to read, write, and modify application

configuration data stored in XML format on a server. XCAP maps XML document

sub-trees and element attributes to HTTP URIs, so that these components can  

be directly accessed by clients using HTTP protocol. An XCAP server is used

by XCAP clients to store data like buddy lists and presence policy in    

combination with a SIP Presence server that supports PUBLISH, SUBSCRIBE and

NOTIFY methods to provide a complete SIP SIMPLE server solution.

== Features == 

The server is written in Python programming language and implements the

following standards RFC4825, RFC4826, RFC4827, RFC5025 and draft-ietf-simple-xcap-diff-09.txt.
