I was wondering if anyone is actively using the script syntax for BOSH? It seems like it's been pushed to the side since being removed from the BOSH standard since there's plenty of ways to get around it. Also, anyone know if any xmpp servers support 0252 script syntax? It looks like Ejabberd doesn't and doesn't have plans to. Most other xmpp docs/forums had no mention of it either, so it looks most are waiting until it's an official standard to make a move. Any news on this becoming a standard anytime?

By the way, a few months ago there was a post on here about flXHR, a drop in cross-domain replacement for xmlhttprequest using flash that's worth checking out. It only took a 3 line change to get Strophe working crossdomain using it (not thoroughly tested of course, but the basics work). It uses flash for the connections, so the external server (wherever the bosh server is) needs a crossdomain.xml file allowing flash connections, but other than that it's pretty slick.
