python-nbxmpp is a Python library that provides a way for Python applications to use Jabber/XMPP networks in a non-blocking way. This library is initialy a fork of xmpppy one, but using non-blocking sockets. If you download with wget you should use the --content-disposition option for that, or you'll end up with a file named 8 (although the slackbuild checks for this file, too).
