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 [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4825 RFC4825], [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4826 RFC4826], [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4827 RFC4827], [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5025 RFC5025] and [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-simple-xcap-diff-14 draft-ietf-simple-xcap-diff-14].
