Well, there really is a very valid point in not wanting to implement standard XMPP for mobile devices. While XML-based communication is easy to work with, it is really terribly inefficient. What we really need to do is establish a STANDARD binary protocol for transmitting XMPP information. Essentially a binary-encoding standard for XMPP. Then as long as servers support that extension, clients will remain unaffected. I certainly don't think that Google should be spearheading this movement, but a formal standard should definitely be defined before Android is ready to ship. -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY!
