I have
been to XMPP interop, although they focused on Voice/Jingle, I
tried the new purple module -- still some things to sort out and I will
post a resume about this particular case and entire event.
I spent monday on the XMPP dev meeting a got a few ideas for improvements.
Nooo, forget XMPP!!
SIP SIMPLE already has enough cool specifications, the problem is that
nobody implements them!
:-) -- maybe SIP extension writers can learn from xmpp where they go
first for prototype implementation and then to standardization.
You are right, there are cool specification, but many do not map
properly to reality.
Looking for interoperability with XMPP will not help,
and I don't want
a future in which my softphone implements SIP for voice and XMPP for
presence/IM, that's a dirty workaround!
I think a competing open protocol is good all the time, makes things
improve in both sides. Apart of that, sip and xmpp does not really
match, SIP is more a routing-like protocol, while xmpp is a content-like
protocol. XMPP network exist and cannot be ignored.
A good usability of xmpp protocol will be communication between various
points of your environment, sip servers, web servers, etc...
