It was pointed out to me that not everyone may know what BEEP is. BEEP
is an IETF spec (RFC 3080/3081):

"
BEEP, the Application Protocol Framework, ... offers advanced features
such as:

* a standard application layer that supports dynamic, pluggable
application "profiles" (protocols)
* peer-to-peer, client-server, or server-to-server capabilities 
* multiple channels over a single authenticated session 
* support for arbitrary MIME payloads, including XML 
"

and from RFC 3080:

a generic application protocol kernel for
connection-oriented, asynchronous interactions called the BEEP
(Blocks Extensible Exchange Protocol) core.  BEEP permits
simultaneous and independent exchanges within the context of a single
application user-identity, supporting both textual and binary
messages.
