So I guess I am confused. When you talk about removing/deprecating the
"non-PEP" parts in the discussion, do you mean the pubsub method, and/or the
message and/or presence methods?

The XEP says that the pubsub way OR the PEP way is the "SHOULD" way to do
it. I dont think that there should be two SHOULD ways of doing things,
otherwise interoperability suffers. This is one spec that should definitely
be as interoperable as possible in order to encourage its use.
