Then we haven't really improved anything. :) > And something else: the top says "Copyright (c) 1999 - 2009 XMPP > Standards Foundation. See Legal Notices." That is not correct.

Currently the XEP metadata does not have the specific date (or date range) of the particular spec, so everything claims copyright since the original Jabber projects began (1999). I'm sure that could be improved. /psa
