I don't recall if I was against a competing spec back at the summit, but generally believe competing Experimental XEPs are a good thing. Even if yours isn't adopted, at least we have an easier-to-find record of it. Digging through a heap of mails and chat logs is a lot easier with a XEP number. >Dave - do you have an ETA on the pubsub/Account stuff? I think that >might help matters significantly.
