All this looks very interesting to me. I wonder if there are any other
Jabber/XMPP server using this.
I would be happy to replace XEP-0114 use in Tigase with this protocol.

What about making it "official" XEP?

Regarding the file:
http://jabberd2.xiaoka.com/wiki/ComponentProtocol
It shows as HTML source with line numbers which is very inconvenient
to read. Any chance for publishing it as HTML page or make it available
for download as pure HTML page?
