SIP presence to Yahoo Messenger Presence

I was wondering if it is possible to build an app that would translate / retrieve presence from Yahoo Messenger and post it to a SIP presence client.

Basically, if I am signed in to a SIP presence client, can I somehow retrieve the list of all my Yahoo Messenger buddies and receive their presence information?

Thanks alot

Hi ethnique_media,

We don't have an API available for messages unfortunately, but several developers have had luck with a product called libPurple: http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/WhatIsLibpurple

You may want to look into that, but we won't be able to support you with it.
