Backward compatibility -- to web-browsers ?

And bulk-data transfers -- IMO HTTP model of binary
transmit is more efficent and meaningful. Also
there may be times when we look down upon routing 
(from the security POV).

As "Jabber" is designed to integrate well with
other protocols (orignal IM protocols). I was thinking
of a small P2P app in Jabber to demonstrate jabber
for inter-communication (ie control comm) and HTTP
for data communication -- which IMO is my idea of
webservices for DotGNU 

The big word in adopting jabber is "Convergence" --
I have see stuff like SMTP on Jabber (IIRC done by
Adam himself ?).
