[jdev] GTalk and transports

I noted that the GTalk server(s) seem to filter out anything that has to do with transports.
If I'm logged in at Google and disco jabber.ru I get answers on all disco-info requests
except them with feature gateway/*

If I anyway try to register with any of them I get:
SEND: <iq type='get' id='1018' to=' msn.jabber.ru '><query xmlns='jabber:iq:register'/>< /iq> 
RECV: <iq type="error" id="1018" to=" matsben at gmail.com/coccinella "
from=" msn.jabber.ru "><query xmlns="jabber:iq:register"/> <error code="404" type="cancel"><remote-server -not-found 
xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns :xmpp-stanzas"/></error></iq> 

Note the attribute quotes!

But if I instead use this while logged into jabber.ru I get:
SEND: <iq type='get' id='1034' to=' msn.jabber.ru '><query xmlns='jabber:iq:register'/>< /iq> 
RECV: <iq from=' msn.jabber.ru ' to=' matben at jabber.ru/coccinella '
xml:lang='sv' type='result' id='1034'><query 
xmlns='jabber:iq:register'> <username> matben59 at hotmail.com </username><password/><registe red/><key>40f505e65aba3fa19749 97bcb726cef50e49a215</key> <instructions>Enter 
your MSN Messenger account and password. Example: user1 at hotmail.com .
Nickname is optional.</instructions>< /query></iq> 

Plain attribute quotes!

So it seems that Google does some nasty things here. I guess this is a decision related
to "legal" issues.
