Re: [Standards] Why XMPP is going on the wrong way for Pubsub commenting

[Tim]

Sorry for my wrong manipulation, I've sent a non-finished email.

For the XML part :

<pubsub xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub'>
    <publish node='urn:xmpp:microblog:0'>
    <item id='1cb57d9c-1c46-11dd-838c-001143d5d5db'>
        <entry xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'>
            <title type='text'>hanging out at the Caf&amp;#233;
Napolitano</title>

        </entry>
    </item>
    <comments>
        <item></item>
        <item></item>
        ...
    </comments>
    </publish>
</pubsub>

With this implementation, you only have to subscribe to a single node. We
can imagine a simple system to subscribe to a item itself without
subscribing to the entire node.
