The JEP has been implemented on the server side at the JID [EMAIL PROTECTED], however the service is currently down while Microsoft reactivates our MapPoint account (our service uses the Mappoint web service to provide routing and geolocation information). It has also been implemented on the client side in a imov Messenger beta for PocketPC, HandheldPC's and Microsoft Smartphones.
I think if you wanted to implement a redirection you could either make a XMPP client process that handles requests and talks to our service via the [EMAIL PROTECTED], or develop a component to do the same. Components are ideal for location based services, but XMPP client processes are probably easier to develop. The reason I went with a XMPP client process instead of a component is because I wanted the location based services to work with any XMPP server. I am not sure if a component written for the jabberd server will work with Jabber Inc's server for instance. Also, please note in order to use the routing service you will need to sign up for an account on our Locator service at http://www.movsoftware.com/locator. This is due to the fact that it uses Microsoft's MapPoint service in the backend (which isn't free), so we like to keep a handle on the use of the service.

(i want my jabber server to filter these stanzas, and send it to my location server; and to get answer stanzas from this location server too). or is it better to use a component?
