Detailed Description

A service is the recipient of sendOnCnl messages sent over channels marked with the corresponding service id.

Services provide functionality such as IM relaying, Awareness tracking and notification, and Conference handling. It is a service's responsibility to accept or destroy channels, and to process data sent over those channels
