Agreed

> Setting #2- Administrators will receive notifications when new updates

> openfire-provided default: enabled
> new suggested default value: disabled
> Justification: Same as #1.

Agreed

> Setting #3- Users can automatically create new accounts.

the

Agreed

> Setting #4-Users can change their password.
> openfire-provided default: enabled
> new suggested default value: disabled
> Justification: Existing sipXecs model is that users cannot change
their
> passwords - administrator is in control of that piece of information.
> 
Agreed

> Setting #5- Clients can only connect to the server using secured
> connections.
> openfire-provided default: optional
> new suggested default value: required
> Justification: Privacy concern
> 
Agreed

> Setting #6- Connections between servers always use secured
connections.
> openfire-provided default: optional
> new suggested default value: required
> Justification: : Privacy concern
> 
> Setting #7- Show the entire chat history to users joining a multi-user
> chat room.
> openfire-provided default: show last 25 entries
> new suggested default value: Don't Show History

Agreed

Wouldn't this mean we could do adhoc group chat? We may want to
reconsider this one.
