Why is it that smartfox sends/receives all its system messages in XML rather than JSON? As mentioned in your docs, when using server-side extensions it is preferable to use JSON over XML because it uses less bandwidth. Surely the same applies for the internal messaging of smartfox ?

The JSON support came long after the first release of SmartFoxServer.
What you mention will be part of the future SmartFoxServer major release.
