Jason,
That's not a bad idea! And now that I think about it, using the resource to 
identify IM2000 traffic is the wrong way to go about it. XMPP is XML-based so 
we only need to come up with a way to flag a jabber packet as having an 
IM2000 payload (whether metadata or an entire message) in XML. We could even 
do it in such a way that Jabber clients which do not understand our IM2000 
flag simply present a URL to the user that allows fetching the message over 
the web. This would certainly aid adoption of the protocol since any existing 
Jabber client would already work to retrieve IM2000 messages. Hmm... I'm 
going to plan on implementing this functionality unless I run into some 
hidden caveat.
