Hi Justin,

Are you able to define "an existing federated domain" for us?

thanks,

David.

We made some changes on our service to address this issue and prevent it from reoccurring. In no case should an existing federated domain be affected by Google Apps users.

No problems here, FWIW.

Our domains aren't signed up with Google Apps, but we had a few hundred users who "activated" some of our domains, causing Google to hijack our XMPP service for a while until we requested that they disable Talk for those domains.

Based on stpeter's comments on this page
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Talk/thread?tid=089ae52d97176669&hl=en
it seems that Google might have temporarily lost a config file that specified which domains don't want to be impersonated by Google without their permission.

If this is going to be a regular occurrence, perhaps Google should change their default behavior to only offer XMPP service for those domains that have had an authoritative representative of the domain sign up for the service.
