Changes to address feedback from Joe and Florian.

Please review carefully, because some of the changes are subtle or 
provisional - more feedback would be very helpful.

Thanks!

I think the separation of preparation, enforcement, and comparison is very =
helpful, but I don=92t think the description of enforcement is very clear y=
et =97 it seems to mix together normalization and validity checking, withou=
t a clear discussion of which rules are which.

For example: as far as I can tell, the intention from all discussions is th=
at StPeter@example.com is a valid JID, which a server should normalize and =
process as stpeter@example.com, but =93StPeter"@example.com is not, and sho=
uld be rejected with <jid-malformed/>.  But I don=92t see how you can deduc=
e this from the document=92s current description of =93Enforcement=94 =97 b=
oth the case mapping and the list of invalid characters are specified as =
=93MUST=94 requirements.

The =93Preparation=94 stage also doesn=92t seem to require that JIDs that a=
re transmitted actually be considered valid by the enforcement stage, which=
 seems like a recipe for interop failure.

6122=92s language was "A localpart MUST be formatted such that the Nodeprep=
 profile of [STRINGPREP] can be applied without failing=94 (and similarly f=
or the other JID parts).  Can language something like this (mutis mutandis =
for Precis rather than Stringprep) be used, once Enforcement is clear about=
 what is or isn=92t considered failure?=

The IESG has approved the following document:
- 'An XMPP Sub-protocol for WebSocket'
  (draft-ietf-xmpp-websocket-10.txt) as Proposed Standard

This document is the product of the Extensible Messaging and Presence
Protocol Working Group.

The IESG contact persons are Richard Barnes and Alissa Cooper.

Technical Summary:

This document defines a binding for the XMPP protocol over a
WebSocket transport layer.  A WebSocket binding for XMPP provides
higher performance than BOSH, the current HTTP binding for XMPP 
(which uses HTTP long polling).


Working Group Summary:

Work on a WebSocket binding for XMPP began in 2010 with the first
version of draft-moffitt-xmpp-over-websocket and related code in 
several XMPP projects. Since then, implementation and deployment
experience has led to several changes, most notably:

a. An explicit framing mechanism for opening and closing XMPP steams
   over the WebSocket binding using complete XML elements, instead
   of the opening and closing <stream> and </stream> tags as in the
   TCP binding specified in RFC 6120.

b. An HTTP-based discovery mechanism using Web Host Metadata (RFC 6145)
   and Web Linking (RFC 5988) with a link relation type of
   "urn:xmpp:alt-connections:websocket" consistent with the Alternative
   XMPP Connection Methods specification (XEP-0156) produced by the
   XMPP Standards Foundation.

The framing mechanism has been a matter, not exactly of controversy, but
at least of discussion. The approach settled on in version -01 of this
document (using complete XML elements instead of opening and closing
tags) gained favor among implementers because it is simpler to code for
the target audience of web developers. Once agreement was reached on
this approach, almost all of the server and client implementations were
quickly updated to follow draft-ietf-xmpp-websocket-01. (There are at
least 6 implementations of this specification.)

Although the document has not generated a great deal of traffic on the
XMPP WG mailing list, discussion at IETF 88 (Vancouver) and afterward
among implementers at XMPP Summit 15 (Brussels) was robust, and further
reviews and revisions occurred soon after IETF 89 (London). Version 07
of the document incorporates all of the feedback receieved during those
discussions.
