More reasons why XMPP is better with BOSH. :) -------- Original Message -------- Date: Tue, 30 Sep 2008 18:06:54 -0500 From: Winterbottom, James <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Paul Kyzivat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Simple] XMPP vs SIMPLE
I might throw in a bit of heresy here too. XMPP over BOSH works just great through my corporate firewall and web-proxy and the IS guys are none-the-wiser. If I were to move to SIP, well..... *8)... I know this isn't a composition comment, but it is an access to the service issue.
