-- This is my attempt at a utility library to compare two XMPP stanzas
-- It is not testing for exact equivalency, but through some vague rules that felt right.
-- For example, the second stanza passed to stanzas_match() is allowed to have unexpected
-- elements and attributes at the top level. Beyond this, they must match exactly, except
-- for whitespace differences only.
--
-- There are probably bugs, and it can probably be smarter, but I don't want to spend too
-- much time on it right now.
