This document improves the security of the Extensible Messaging and
Presence Protocol (XMPP) in two ways.  First, it specifies how to
establish a strong association between a domain name and an XML
stream, using the concept of "prooftypes".  Second, it describes how
to securely delegate a service domain name (e.g., example.com) to a
target server hostname (e.g., hosting.example.net); this is
especially important in multi-tenanted environments where the same
target server hosts a large number of domains.

This document is a product of the Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
