Deprecating IBR is masking the SPAM problem but not solving it. I also think that there is much need for an XMPP based registration mechanism. Why not improve and the missing pieces to IBR XEP instead of deprecating it? It appears what IBR lacks is resistance against automated non-human mass registrations. So why not make XEP-0158 § 4. mandatory? - Florian
