For the sake of keeping this issue alive, here is an example packet
that google talk will send a client:
<cli:message xmlns:cli="jabber:client" from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
powerbook" type="chat" to="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" id="iChat_54A77CFC" >
<cli:body>testing</cli:body>
<html xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/xhtml-im";>
<body xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; style="background-
color:#ACB5BF;color:#000000" >
<span style="font-family:Gill Sans" >testing</span>
</body>
</html>
<x xmlns="jabber:x:event">
<composing/>
</x>
</cli:message>
So it is using the prefixing, in several places. It would seem like a
pretty easy thing to fix.

My friend who is using trillian says that the trillian log is
complaining that <cli:message ...> isn't a valid top level
stanza and
drops it. Looks like a namespace issue of some sorts? Pandion

seem to work too well either...
As far as i know, namespaced XML elements like the one google
sends are
allowed. I never seen a client send them, but Google does, and most
off the shelf XML parsers used in clients seem to be able to
handle it.
The point is that using prefixes for elements in the jabber:client
namespace is specifically not allowed. This is clearly defined in
section 11.2.2 of RFC 3920 (XMPP Core).
If Google's implementation sends <cli:message/> where cli is a
prefix
for the jabber:client namespace, this is simply not compliant. Other
implementations cannot be blamed for rejecting it.
Are the Google Talk engineers monitoring this forum? This seems like
a rather significant issue that requires attention ASAP.
I've been looking at this, but I have not been able to reproduce it.
Some more information will help me figure out what's going on:
- Time that problem was first observed.
- Is the Trillian user logged into a @gmail.com or @googlemail.com
account?
- Is the sender logged into a @gmail.com or @googlemail.com account?
- What client is the sender using?
