Further to the replies that have already been made, there's also
the point that writing an external component that will connect
over a jabber:component:accept stream (i.e. a TCP sockets based
component) will be independent of the API of the specific jabberd
backbone it connects to. Writing a component in the style of, say,
the JUD component that connects to the j.o server will mean that
you can only connect it to servers of the j.o server ('jabberd') 
flavour.
