Instead of shipping two sets of XMPP code, it would be great to enable JS-XMPP by default and stop shipping libpurple XMPP. This requires Mozilla Bio 14328 (DNS SRV support) to be fixed first.

Note that the Bonjour code currently uses libpurple XMPP, I'm unsure how that would be affected by this change.

Any regressions between XMPP and JS-XMPP should block this bug.

This is also blocked by https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=628312 ("StartTLS hostname issue").

So today Gtalk is down so I need to use generic XMPP accounts for my testing on other JS-XMPP bugs. Here's an attachment that enables JS-XMPP for generic XMPP accounts without removing the existing libpurple plugin.

Too late to work on this for 1.3, replacing 1.3-wanted by 1.4-wanted in the whiteboard.

We also need to fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=817596 before replacing the libpurple xmpp implementation.

s/1.4-wanted/1.5-wanted/ in the whiteboard for bugs that probably won't happen before 1.4 is released.

I'll leave this bug open since it is still pref'ed off:

After landing of bug 1171691, Do not forget to remove the pref check [1] for forcePurple when JS-XMPP is enabled.

No longer needed.
Bug 955317 would also be nice-to-have, but doesn't block this.
