MR> This functionality is also quite needed for PubSub queueing that MR> we are currently working on. We discussed temp subs in Brussels earlier this year: http://mail.jabber.org/pipermail/pubsub/2009-February/000086.html Nathan Fritz explained that at Seesmic they set the pubsub#expire field in the subscription options configuration form to "presence" in order to indicate that a subscription will run out when the service receives unavailable presence from the subscriber. I've added a note about this to my working copy. MR> Another nice addition would be to the access control system, that MR> would allow configuration of roster groups that were allowed to MR> publish to node as well as the current rostergroup<->member MR> (allowed to subscribe) system. I am agnostic about that feature. Does anyone have strong feelings about it?
