Not a darn thing, unless Cisco screws around and makes an incompatible
version of a jabber server and client that doesn't play according to
the protocol. Microsoft Java, anybody?

We'll see how long this list stays true:

Cisco didn't buy the protocol, and literally dozens of open-source
projects that use the protocol in various ways are not affected by
this. They bought one commercial implementation of a Jabber server
(arguably multiple implementations).
