I have been reviewing XEP-0060 (pubsub) and have come across something that is 
bothering me.

Throughout the document, notification events are highlighted and discussed.  
The events come as a Message element with a child Event element that is in the 
jabber.org/protocol/pubsub#event namespace.  This is the case for nearly every 
event notification until you get to the very end of section 8 in the document.

8.9.4 describes the notification event for an affiliation change.  However, 
this event notification is a Message stanza with a Pubsub child element (rather 
than an Event element).  I would like to understand why it is this way.  The 
section above it, 8.8.4, covers subscription notifications (very similar in 
nature to the affiliations) and it is under an Event element.

Could someone tell me if there is a specific reason for it being setup this 
way?  If their isn't, I would like to submit that "affiliation" be added under 
the Event namespace (similar to subscription) and section 8.9.4 be updated 
accordingly.

Thanks,
Todd Herman
