Subject: [Security] upcoming DEFCON talk

I take a look at how those issues
play out in IM clients and open source servers.

Do we have any recommendations on how to avoid things like this?

Like what? The abstract of the talk doesn't provide many details.
Perhaps a conference paper will emerge at some point. In any case we
have plenty of recommendations regarding DoS, see XEP-0205:

Somehow we need to get this to Ava, so she knows about it before the conference.
