I really like this proposal and have been wanting something similar for a while.

http port

Quoting Marvin W

  • ws://...:5443/ws makes no sense. Port 5443 is obviously a reference to
    HTTPS 443 port which is TLS encrypted, so you shouldn't make non-TLS
    connections to 5443. If any, use something like port 5080 or 5280.

http(s) path

Also quoting Marvin W

  • Same as Sam, I'd also opt to use a path that is specific to XMPP and
    not as generic as /ws - at least for the default port variant. Best
    would probably be to register and use a well-known URI, e.g.
    /.well-known/xmpp-websocket.

server vendors

I'm not happy with the wording, suggestions?

# `/ws` -> `/.well-known/xmpp-websocket`

In deployments, `/ws` is too generic and the domain might already have something running there for :443.

# `5443` -> `5280`
