Hello all... speaking as the person who propagated the Flash hack into jadc2s... I agree that propagating it is a bad idea.
My questions have always been this...
Does Flash support TCP/IP connections?
Does Flash support basic string handling?
If the answers to the above are Yes (which I suspect they are), then why is the option of someone writing an XMPP library that works they way all of the other languages work not discussed?
Generally, the Open Source model says that if a solution doesn't fit quite right for you, then you go create the solution that does. Why doe you have to wait for Macromedia to change that? Just because the have a feature that does most of what you want, doesn't mean that can't invent your own solution and share it with the rest of the world.
Just my $0.02.

Well, "step 0" is usually to see if any of the existing JEPs even come close to what you need to accomplish. Without this step, the council and/or JEP editor may deny your JEP submission. I think you've already accomplished this one, though (but a double-check doesn't hurt) (-:
If there is a JEP or two, then the current council would *strongly* recommend you first try collaborating with those JEP(s)'s author(s). Sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn't. If not, then I would strongly recommend first reading the Jabber Protocol Tao (at http://www.jabber.org/wiki/index.php/ProtocolTao). I would next recommend you start jotting down your thoughts on that same wiki, although this isn't necessarily required (especially if you've already got a good plan and rationale).
Given the current discussion, I personally don't fully understand why JEP-0124 (at the least) cannot accomodate you, but I'm willing to be instructed (-: Just be sure to provide a pretty detailed section on why other JSF JEPs/ IETF RFCs don't meet the requirements but your JEP does.
I look forward to seeing your proposal.

I'm not at all familiar with the process, so is a JEP the way to go? How do these things get started?
