In this article there is a piece of text:

"The presence model inside XMPP is fairly simplistic and does not 
adequately address the issues of building a global presence architecture 
that is scalable and highly distributed on a global basis, said Batchelder."

I'm sorry, but I can't believe that one is true if you see that there 
are 50000 Jabber servers worldwide (which answers the "highly 
distributed on a global basis")? And XMPP is based on XML (which answers 
the "scalable" part).

I hope you all agree that Batchelder isn't correct?

Mattias
