Background
Philippe Sultan in June 2008:Asterisk (or any other XMPP client) cannot change the Jabber status on
behalf of another Jabber user, even if you connect it as a component
to your XMPP server. This behaviour is forbidden by the XMPP specs.
To be able to do this, you can use OpenFire along with its Asterisk
plugin, or patch your own XMPP server. I had written a patch for
Jabberd2 some time ago, but I'm not aware of anything that would be
applicable to Ejabberd (written in Erlang).
I'm in the process of extending Asterisk's "Hints" dialplan to XMPP
notifications for authorized users. Those notifications would be
carried over XMPP as message stanza of type 'headline'. That will be a
first step toward implementing PEP (Personal Eventing via Pubsub).
