I've captured this thread here :
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/qpid/Qpid+Interoperability+Documentation#sasl

so it would be good for those better in the know to update the docs.
Also if someone has a link or two ticks to put a description of
AMQPLAIN in that would be great.
For what it's worth, AMQPLAIN is not a SASL mechanism. Furthermore, it's not mentioned in the 0-10 AMQP spec.

I think AMQPLAIN used AMQP str8 encoding for the username and password whereas SASL PLAIN uses null characters to delimit the fields.

I suggest that we abandon AMQPLAIN and use the standard SASL PLAIN instead.
