Well, As far as I understand JEP-0124, it mean that the Flash client 
would  need to poll  the
server, right? I dont think that the best way to go since as some others 
pointed it out, Flash
would lost a lot of resource in creating / destroying HTTP calls and it 
does not provide real-time
behavior.

A compatibility layer between Flash and Jabber2 would be the best way to 
go IMHO.
The thing I m wondering (due to my lack of knowledge concerning jabberd2 
architecture),
is what form this compatibility layer should have? Jabber Component? If 
yes, Internal or
External ?
