last paragraph / code

Dear Sir or Madam,

self.xmpp.sendMessage(message["jid"], message["message"])
should be changed to
self.xmpp.sendMessage(message["from"], message["body"])
otherwise it won't work. jid is the JID of the bot itself and message will not work for echoing the body of the message.

Have a nice day,

Stephan Rodemeier

Probes

The probes on page 34 have a resource in the from -- should be
changed if there is a next version since 6121 has a MUST for the bare jid (3921 still had a must for the full jid)

first sentence of Defining Your Terms: Form Types

"Defining Your Terms: Form Types

Bynature, data forms are extremely loose."

I believe there is a whitespace missing between "By" and "nature".
