Arrrrggggh

The VCard code I am using only works with XMPP clients, not XMPP components

I am not having a good night

>:o

Looks like to make it work with components is a much bigger animal

It looks like it I seriously want to make gravatars work, the part of the code I need to work with is this part:

def handle_iq(iq)
