I note that having many offline messages suggests a client bug somewhere - clients should only be sending CSN when they know the other full-JID side supports it, so CSN in offline store should only happen if the CSN and the presence-unavailable cross each other on the wire. In any case, I don't think this is an appropriate change to a Final XEP. > And while we're at it, wouldn't the same make sense for PEP? I believe PEP already suggests this. /K
