Hiya, I'm currently working on a project that we're wanting to use Jabber 
as our messaging layer between client and server applications.

I envisage sending 4-5 special "messages" with our applicatoins data back 
and forth, but I'm not sure exactlty -where- I should be putting my payload 
(in order to be a nice Jabber citizen).

At the moment I'm plaing with just sending normal messages, which my 
payload next after the body, in its own namespace, something like:

<message.......>
  <body>This is a message</body>
  <specialk xmlns="super:goodness">
    <more data="here"/>
  </specialk>
</message>

Is this ok?  Or should be doing this inside an <iq/> element or something?

Are there any JEPs/HOW-TOs or docs on what should and shouldn't be done, 
when extending stuff?  My manager wanted wanted to do something with 
<message type="ourspecialmessagetype"></message>, but I wasn't too sure 
about that either...

Mark
