When a server's IPv4 path and protocol are working, but the server's IPv6 path and protocol are not working, a dual-stack application that initiates a connect experiences significant connection delay compared to an IPv4-only application. This is undesirable because it causes the dual-stack initiating entity to have a worse user experience. This XEP defines how IETF's 'Happy Eyeballs' algorithm requirements that reduce this user-visible delay are applied to XMPP.
