[jdev] _jabber._tcp needed anymore?

[Justin Karneges]

I'm curious if anyone still needs to put this in their DNS to support legacy
servers? Does anyone do it? I noticed I had it in mine. Anyone know when
_xmpp-server showed up in jabberd1?

I don't use them and I find it hard to believe anything remotely
modern is still needing them, we're 7 years on from 3920...

Right - I think the XSF's own interop a year ago proved that basic
S2S interop is fine in all modern servers, and even more advanced
features from 3920's S2S are perfectly fine (like
X.509/SASL-EXTERNAL, and so on).

As I recall, the only real problem we showed then was that
certificate revocation support was in general weaker, but that was a
year ago after all.

jabber.org itself has not published the old records for as long as I
can remember, although no doubt Kev and PSA can fill in some detail
then.

I think we got rid of that record at jabber.org in 2006, but it might
have been even earlier.
