I was going to side with updating the existing XEP. Then I looked at XEP-0256: Last Activity in Presence (which is perhaps what most clients actually make use of, rather than the IQ query), and it uses XEP-0203: Delayed Delivery in addition to XEP-0012: Last Activity. Would it make sense to just use <delay xmlns='urn:xmpp:delay' stamp='2002-09-10T23:41:07Z'>Message</delay>? -- Waqas
