[jdev] Jabber: serverside routing&geolocation

[gregoire athanase]

hello,
i'm really interested in routing & location
information for my jabber client, do you have any idea
about when will these (experimental?) jeps be
implemented in jabber servers? in weeks?

how easy is it to implement a stanza "redirection" in
jabberd, to send the routing&location related stanzas
to another server? (i want my jabber server to filter
these stanzas, and send it to my location server; and
to get answer stanzas from this location server too).
or is it better to use a component? (i'm server side
newbie, sorry :)
