t.w.p.m.NotificationFactory(ClientFactory) : class documentation

Factory for the NotificationClient protocol. This is basically responsible for keeping the state of the client and thus should be used in a 1:1 situation with clients.

Instance Variable	contacts	An MSNContactList instance reflecting the current contact list -- this is generally kept up to date by the default command handlers.
Instance Variable	userHandle	The client's userHandle, this is expected to be set by the client and is used by the protocol (for logging in etc).
Instance Variable	screenName	The client's current screen-name -- this is generally kept up to date by the default command handlers.
Instance Variable	password	The client's password -- this is (obviously) expected to be set by the client.
Instance Variable	passportServer	This must point to an msn passport server (the whole URL is required)
Instance Variable	status	The status of the client -- this is generally kept up to date by the default command handlers
