+==============
+
+lets start with the system management server.
+
+to begin with, when installed the sms will ask which xmpp server to talk to. (server needs conference capabilities).
+
+The main server will be the service responce daemon, once server is connected to, it'll try and attach as the user "hostname@domain/system".
+This service is basically responsible for arbitrating interactions with the server. if the server is "localhost" it'll also try and be the
+system@domain/super user which means its essentially responsible for "everything" in its domain (i.e. the local machine). Think of it like
+an active directory server.
+
+The first task of the sms is to be the manager of xmpp server. So, if its localhost, it'll need to know how to create users/conferences and
+stuff. the system@domain/super will be the thing other machines will talk to if they connect to that host.
+
+there will also be a user created called root@domain which will be how people "join" the domain.
+
+once a machine has a domain, its then up to the user to connect as a priveledge user (root for eg) then create users and assign them priveledges
+
+on multi-machine domains, things get blah blah
