Ok. I will unfold my cb features too.
In xmpppy callbacks is also called "handlers" You can register any number of 
callbacks for any fird-level node name 
(iq/message/presence/handshake/features/...), type, namespace, payload 
namespace and any combinations of them. When handler is done with stanza it 
raises NodeProcessed exception and the dispatcher skips all handlers that is 
not marked as "system" (and you can register system handler too).
Also there are "cycle handlers" that is called each time dispatche is called 
(used for IIB), namespace handlers (for any stanza in f.e. "jabber:client" 
namespace), default handler, disconnect handler, event handler (in infant 
state, for things like "file received)

yes it is

Also in xmpppy:
In-stream registration/unregistration/password change
Privacy lists handling

So it seems that both libraries is roughly on the same level. Basic features 
presented in both libraries, advanced can be in both or in one only.

So the problem of choosing the right one comes to the XML processing way in my 
POV - either you wants standart python libxml - then you choose PyXMPP, or 
you can choose simplexml way and then you will be frient of xmpppy.
