[JDEV] JEP-51 Server Transfer

[Richard Dobson]

Well thats really got nothing to do with the protocol itself, its got 
to do with the server implementation and how its farming in that 
implementation works, if the server is done properly it wouldnt matter 
which server in the farm you are connected to you would always get the 
messages that are addressed to you, btw the reference jabber server is 
not currently designed for this kind of farming (complete servers 
acting together as one).
