[JDEV] How to create a new protocol?

[zak]

so can something similar to this be done when sending messages.  for 
instance, can i somehow send data with each messages that only my client will 
understand?  seems like the "x" child element of the message element is what 
this is for?  can someone give a simple example of how i would do this?

thanks, zak.
