Exactly.  I'm still a great fan of XML (esp. after doing a web app with no 
prewritten html - just xml, xslt and taglibs).  As you said however, the 
impetus for techne is to be lightweight and serialization is a key 
requirement.  I've come across several JSON frameworks such as XStream, 
Json-lib, JsonTools, Jettison and JSON-RPC.   XStream (with Jettison) and 
Json-lib seem to hold a lot of promise not only for their streaming 
capabilities but the "seamless" way they interoperate both with Java objects 
and XML.

Yes, I understand where you were coming from.  I just wonder if XMPP is easy 
to learn and if it is usable for web services.
