Current status of IMPP

Hello,

I'm trying to get up to speed with the current IMPP drafts, because I 
may need to implement the resulting protocol at some point.  (I'm also 
the author of RFC 3268, if you're curious.)

As I understand it, you have a set of RFCs which form a requirements 
specification for the resulting protocol, is that right?  Then the CPIM 
drafts set out the format of instant messages and presence 
notifications.  Is there a document that specifies the protocol which 
will be used for transferring the messages defined in the CPIM drafts? 
(I guess like RFC 2821 is to RFC 2822.)

Also, a while ago I checked here, and there were lots of rival drafts 
that all set out ways of implementing IM systems.  At that point I ran 
away and hid for a while, because it seemed that there was no chance of 
ever reaching consensus.  Now those drafts all seem to have gone away; 
is everyone backing CPIM now?

Sorry to interrupt with all these questions.
