Yes, that is true and I even had it on my <username>@jabber.org. Not all but some contacts were there, was adding more. I forgot my password - it stopped working(I save passwords in LastPass and that's one incidence so not sure whose fault). I didn't have an email associated with that Jabber a/c. I lost all. What I mean by moving connections was removing the need to add each individual IM/XMPP contact again. What I meant was that somehow the connection could move with my XMPP ID that is also an email address on my own domain. In a way that I don't have to add every single WhatsApp friend again. I just have to prove that it's the same mobile number. It has it's drawbacks. When I activated my new prepaid number I used to get WhatApp pings from people I didn't know and I used to send pings to people who had got my friends' abandoned/deactivated numbers. I emailed WhatsApp and ofcourse never heard from them.
