Are you playing devil's advocate or are you serious? If I had to guess,
I'd say that 99.9% of public XMPP servers are deployed at [domain].com
or [sub].[domain].com. They're not deployed at
[sub].[sub].[sub].[domain].com. This means that there are generally
never "unused" or "hardly used" domains up the tree from any particular
XMPP server that somebody could stealthily take over.


We run our conference server on conference.jabber.meta.net.nz.


It the tld .net.nz or .nz?

The .nz cc-tld is broken up into several 2ld's .co, .net, .org, .gov,
,.gen, .maori, .school, .iwi, .geek, etc.

Yes, sorry.. I meant to ask if it was part of the split cc-tld, or if the "net." part was a "for sale" domain. So in your case you're still running on conference.[sub].[domain].[cc-tld]

But eg. .uk.com (not .com.uk!) is quite populair, while "uk.com" is really just another .com domain (and a website even, promoting amongst other things those gambling sites). So you could eg. have jabber.example.com.uk, which is to put it in Matt's terms a [sub].[sub].[domain].com. I was wondering if the same applied here, which is not the case.
