I attended the Managed Incident Lightweight Exchange (mile) working group on Friday.  At it, the "XMPP Protocol Extensions for Use with IODEF" https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-mile-xmpp-grid-01 draft was presented.  This is the transport that Kathleen Moriarty suggested during our working group meeting that SecEvent consider to transport SETs.  The abstract of the specification is:

   This document describes the extensions made to Extensible Messaging
   and Presence Protocol (XMPP) [RFC6120]that enables the use of XMPP as
   a transport protocol for collecting and distributing any security
   telemetry information between and among network platforms, endpoints,
   and most any network connected device.  Specifically, this document
   will focus on how these extensions can be used to transport the
   Incident Object Description Exchange Format (IODEF) information.

It would be good if people gave it a read - both for SecEvent's purposes and to provide feedback to MILE.
