Ah, so you've got the roster access, and the +notify stuff going from a component? That's interesting (and quite cool). > Moreover, those who've met me know I'm prone to saying that much of the > PubSub protocol is confusing and not necessarily useful in practice I'm not going to disagree there, I've been saying it for years. > so > having roster-based permissions is far from necessary for most things, Sure, but it's necessary for a complete implementation of -0060, which was all I intended to assert. That said, you've done the roster stuff in a component, so I was wrong to assert it anyway. /K
