But for me, is mostly to invite a room to the conference. Some sorts of nick negociation is then necessary, maybe simply by adding a suffix like nickname@foreign_room or maybe more complicate. Some special requirements are required for those "special guest" like when asking for the list of users, or things like that. It would be cool to have a special options so that we can only query the local room or query invited room... We are near to the concept of MUD rooms now ;). > This way all the users can join a local chat room which has a proxy to the > main chat room on a different server.
