[jdev] Jabberd2, Flash Client and terminator character...

The flash client protocol just replaces the protocol mechanism with a 
slightly different mechanism, keeping the actual XMPP message format 
the same. I don't see how this would differ in 'being' XMPP or Jabber 
any more or less than JEP-0124 - one sends messages wrapped in xml 
documents and provides a polling mechanism to overcome the stateless 
nature of http requests; one uses a single tcp socket like xml-streams 
but sends messages as separate documents, separating them by a special 
byte or byte sequence.
