This is whack. As an alternative, how about you don't host the domain
at all until you see an SRV pointing to google's servers? It's just
not good enough to allow anyone out there to hijack service just as
long as they get to it first. If someone points the SRV record, that's
a good sign that someone with real authority actually wants to use
your services.

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

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.
