We never published that, though...

Oh, cool.  I was going to suggest a XEP for that stuff, too. :)

I still think the minimum recommended supported size belongs in xmpp-core though.

I've just added the following text to my working copy:

******

9.5.  Stanza Size



******

XMPP is optimized for the exchange of relatively large numbers of relatively small stanzas. A client or server MAY enforce a maximum stanza size. The maximum stanza size MUST NOT be smaller than 10000 bytes, from the opening "<" character to the closing ">" character. If an entity receives a stanza that exceeds its maximum stanza size, it MUST return a <not-acceptable/> stanza error or a <policy-violation/> stream error.
