“choose a XMPP server which allows you to host your application on the BOSH Uri”

Any recommendations?

Gmail requires TLS or GOOGLE-X-TOKEN authentication
There is no TLS support in Silverlight and we can’t use GOOGLE-X-TOKEN because of cross domain restrictions. But you can connect to Gmail if you use a proxy like punjab over BOSH.

yes, I agree with you. A open standard which could replace Silverlight and Flash would be nice, but I don’t see this to happen soon.

I offer a fifth reason that “adoption” has been so rapid. Silverlight is distributed via Windows Update. Anyone who has Windows Update set to automatically keep Windows up-to-date will have Silverlight installed automatically.

Also, I think the term “adoption” is a bit inaccurate. It’s not as if there are 300 million people regularly using SIlverlight but rather Silverlight has an installed client base of 300 million. To be clear, I’m not saying that Silverlight is bad or that Flash is better; I’m simply saying that I think that Microsoft’s numbers are misleading (see: “How to Lie with Statistics” by Darrell Huff).

If I had my way, I’d much rather see an open standard instead of either Flash or Silverlight. I wish we had seen something like SVG+SMIL+JS take over.
