Exactly why I want to adopt Jabber into the VRS project.
However I've always assumed that webservice 'servers' would
always expect SOAP (over whatever transport - Jabber being
one of them). 

Now I think about it, that's guff isn't it?

I agree.  Incidentally the VRS will have SOAP support first
because I'll directly feed back some work I'm doing for a client
of mine at the moment - Unless a Jabber nut comes along and
builds the Transport module for me :o)
