Forget the Chat-Only-Servers here on VBC - This is the First Multi-Purpose(!) Multi-Client XML-Queue-Server. How does it work? The client-app sends its "data" as a XML-File over a TCP/IP-Connection to the server. The server grabs this XML-File, and puts/parses all the other Client-XML-Files into one big Server-XML-File. after some seconds, this "complete" file will be sent to the clients - which will parse it back and print the "data" of all the clients. Et Voila. ^^

Key Features:
* Works with XML, not strings
* expand the data to send what you want, XML can even tranfer large binary data.
* Up to 65536 clients at one time.
* Less transfer/cpu-time for clients and mainly Server.
* Uses MSXML40 Core Services
* Its an Queue, not an Echo-Server like the other "chat"-Servers out there on VBC. It sends all the Data with one command.
* XML is standard - feed your applications over the Inet with it.
* add "Header"-Info to each server-xml.
* clear and commented code.
