Thank you, that is quite a revelation to me. I didn't realize that there was
such a distinction. I realize now this is also covered in section 4.6 of
XEP-0060.
So in theory, I should be able to use pubsub and use the following stanza to
subscribe to the geoloc PEP node (assuming permissions are OK):
<iq type='set'
from='mywebservice.shakespeare.lit'
to='[email protected]'
id='sub1'>
<pubsub xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub'>
<subscribe
node='http://jabber.org/protocol/geoloc'
jid='mywebservice.shakespeare.lit'/>
</pubsub>
</iq>
My guess is that this will fail on most implementations because the access
mode for PEP nodes is "roster". But that is OK.
