		<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Authentication_and_Security_Layer">Simple Authentication and Security Layer</a> is a framework dedicated to internet
		protocols for an authentication and a data security. SASL is widely used in
		many protocols i.e. SMTP, IMAP, XMPP. Project goal is to write robust client
		library focused on security and usability. Project was started as the part of
		the Google Summer of Code project, more information about it can be found
		in <a href="soc.html">GSoC section</a>.
