I'm CCing JDEV on this reply, as it the appropriate list to talk about
something like this on.
JEP-0045 (MUC) provides for anonymous multi user chat. The JIDs used in
a room are in the form "[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[nick]". If the room isn't
fully anonymous (a room configuration option) the user's jid is included
in the presence stanza as an attribute to the item tag. Let's look at
the first set of stanzas:
Example 19. Service Sends Presence from Existing Occupants to New
Occupant
<presence
from='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/firstwitch'
to='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/pda'>
<x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'>
<item affiliation='owner' role='moderator'/>
</x>
</presence>
<presence
from='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/secondwitch'
to='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/pda'>
<x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'>
<item affiliation='admin' role='moderator'/>
</x>
</presence>
Those two stanzas are from members already in the room, sent to the
occupant that just joined. From the stanza from addresses you can see
that their nick names are firstwitch and secondwitch. Their real JIDs
are not necessary to know in order to do multi user chat. If the room
has been configured as Non-Anonymous
(http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0045.html#enter-nonanon), the following
two stanzas would have been received instead:
Example 19 (revised for Non-Anonymous). Service Sends Presence from
Existing Occupants to New Occupant
<presence
from='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/firstwitch'
to='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/pda'>
<x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'>
<item affiliation='owner' role='moderator'
jid='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/desktop'/>
</x>
</presence>
<presence
from='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/secondwitch'
to='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/pda'>
<x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'>
<item affiliation='admin' role='moderator'
jid='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/laptop'/>
</x>
</presence>
The same goes for your next example. The from address contains the
anonymous JID of your user as he is addressed in the chat room
([EMAIL PROTECTED]/thirdwitch). Your nick name is
thirdwitch, which you specified as the "to" address in your presence
stanza to join the room.
