Yep, that's the idea. If I send someone directed presence then they'd be temporarily authorized. In current practice, this would really only be used with MUC rooms. However, I can imagine a future practice of sending directed presence to unsubscribed contacts or sending directed presence when invisible (fortunately these are edge cases, so there's a lot to be gained even without clients handling them yet). -Justin _______________________________________________ JDev mailing list FAQ: http://www.jabber.org/discussion-lists/jdev-faq Forum: http://www.jabberforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=20 Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________
