[JDEV] Jabber, the Name

[Julian Missig]

I really like the idea of compatibility tests... I think that the Jabber
Foundation should have a group which determines which pieces of the
protocol are necessary for a client to be able to call itself "Jabber
compliant" ... we could even have different levels of compatibility, and
different requirements for different namespaces (My XHTML draft spec
note thing sort of hints towards this)
