[...] Bots. Apparently there is a way to tie message processing to domains without messing with roasters. Exactly what I needed for my little XMPP [...]

I want to host a xmpp bot.
Will I be able to connect xmpp through http proxy ?

Just to third, confirmed ejabberd round robin load balancing components. But it *seems* like you could re-use the your presumably more sophisticated (and possibly implemented in hard ware) load balancing infrastructures if you move to s2s.

Of course, sophistication is just another word for more ways to break down

Yes ejabberd does round robin load balancing of components registered as the same component name.

@anders: So if multiple component connections occur with the same component name, ejabberd will automatically round robin? If so, that at least solves the load balancing piece for ejabberd.

My understanding is that at least in Ejabberd the current implementation round-robins components. Providing at least some degree of protection for availability.
