XMPP: Post to PubSub

[sjehuda]

Description
I want to publish my podcast contents over PubSub node items on my XMPP server.

In XMPP, using PubSub(1) (XEP-0060), it is possible to store posts as Atom Syndication(2) entries into XMPP(3).

There are several XMPP extensions that apply it, namely XEP-0227 (4) and XEP-0472 (5) which make node urn:xmpp:microblog:0 as a common choice to manage news for client accounts (e.g. blog@getgrav.org), yet a component account (e.g. pubsub.getgrav.org) may use all of its nodes for this purpose.

pubsub.getgrav.org/
|
|-- updates/
    |-- Sombre
     `-- Varied
|-- releases/
 `-- events/

pubsub service/
|
|-- node/
    |-- item
     `-- item
|-- node/
 `-- node/

A PHP library that can be utilized would be Moxl of Movim.

I have made a script that realizes viewing PubSub node items as Atom XML feeds over HTTP.

1. XEP-0060: Publish-Subscribe
2. RFC 4287: The Atom Syndication Format
3. Atom Over XMPP
4. XEP-0277: Microblogging over XMPP
5. XEP-0472: Pubsub Social Feed
6. Moxl
7. PubSub Over HTTP

Motivation
Publishing my podcast on my XMPP server or XMPP account would help in:

1. More exposure.
2. (If one does not have a server of his own) being able to publish to own account without having to have my own server/website.
