I don't think PEP is a solution because an emoticon should be embedded in a message.
I'll be also intersted to know if there is a way to send emoticons.

Personal eventing provides a way for a Jabber/XMPP user to send updates or "events" to other users, who are typically contacts in the user's roster. An event can be anything that a user wants to make known to other people, such as those described in User Geolocation [1], User Mood [2], User Activity [3], and User Tune [4]. While the XMPP Publish-Subscribe [5] extension ("pubsub") can be used to broadcast such events associated, the full pubsub protocol is often thought of as complicated and therefore has not been widely implemented. [6] To make publish-subscribe functionality more accessible (especially to instant messaging and presence applications that conform to XMPP IM [7]), this document defines a simplified subset of pubsub that can be followed by instant messaging client and server developers to more easily deploy personal eventing services across the Jabber/XMPP network. We label this subset "Personal Eventing via Pubsub" or PEP.

I also don't see it on the message boards but who knows maybe there's some official word on the mailing list.

Mm.. but doesn't XMPP have to have an element or something in the message xml that sets the emotion/status? I don't want to send a message like this:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
    <message> [emotion:happy] </message>
</xs:schema>

and then parse it in the client. Then I wouldn't be able to to connect to MSN, ICQ etc. I looked through the xmpp documentation and found this XEP-0038: Icon Styles but it says that it should not be implemented. Is it implemented anyways in ejabberd? Which protocol should i use?

This is more up to the client then the service.
