This is a abstraction in golang to Hipchat's implementation of XMPP. It communicates over TLS and requires zero knowledge of XML or the XMPP protocol.

Hipchat treats the "bot" resource differently from any other resource connected to their service. When connecting to Hipchat with a resource of "bot", a chat history will not be sent. Any other resource will receive a chat history.
