[JDEV] Jabber s2s dialback problem (as well as jabber.org problem)

A while ago, I got interested in developing Jabber-MOO connectivity.  (For
more information, take a look at http://ahynes1.homeip.net:8000/moo/jabber)
Essentially, I was interested in setting up a jabberd type process, written
in MOO code that runs as part of a MOO.  I have a very limitted version of
it running.  People can connect to the MOO as if it were a jabber server.
Also, MOO users can communicate with other jabber users on different jabber
servers.

This second part is where I have run into two problems.  I set up a jabber
ID on jabber.org.  I have been using WinJAB.  Recently, WinJAB has started
crashing everytime I connect to jabber.org.  Any idea why?

With this, I started trying to connect using the dialback to other jabber
servers (myjabber.net and jabber.com).  I notice that they send a '<?xml
version='1.0'?>' at the beginning of their string, which jabber.org did not
send.  In addition, I now get <stream:error>Invalid XML</stream:error> from
these servers when I send <?xml version='1.0'?><db:result
from='ahynes1.homeip.net' to='myjabber.net'>482</db:result> as a response to
the jabber:server:dialback request.  The construct of my string appears to
match the documentation at http://www.pipetree.com/jabber/jdp/x175.htm and
http://docs.jabber.org/draft-proto/html/dialback.html

Any comments?  Also, is there a good list of jabber servers for testing
against?  Ideally, I would like to check many jabber servers.
