Excellent idea.  If you can think of a way it would help, I have a book on
Jabber development (http://www.manning.com/shigeoka) that may be useful.  It
has a couple chapters that specifically discuss Jabber beyond simple IM.  I
can donate a couple copies if it will help (not sure how though) or we may
be able to excerpt parts of those chapters for whitepapers or whatever.  Of
course, I think part of the press kit should include a list of Jabber books
in print (there are 4 I think).
