I never used it with WO, but I wrote a Smack-based XMPP client for
Cayenne Remote Object Persistence (aka JavaClient to WO

targeted notifications of context changes. Pretty cool.
Was this instead of, or in addition to, the use of Hessian (which I
thought you were using, perhaps that it was being used for the
actual data transfers and Smack just for notifications)?
This is separate from Hessian part. Hessian-over-HTTP is the main
communication channel used by the clients to interact with Cayenne
server (pull model). Update notifications use an (optional) separate
peer-to-peer channel (push model). It is pluggable too - we provide
implementations based on XMPP (firewall friendly), JavaGroups (very
simple configuration, but only works on a local subnet) and JMS.
