I'm not sure to understand, the "matching syntax" is let to the client implementation on purpose (see section 4.1), as I don't want to enforce "@nick" syntax because it's the fashion today (but clients can use it if they want to). as I imagine it, if a user wants to mention an other user in a blog or a conversation, it can press @ (or use a menu, or anything), then the client show a list of potential contacts, then the message is sent with the <mention> element. The mentioned entity receive the message and check the from attribute (or the <author> element). I don't see where string matching is needed. But maybe I misunderstood your point. By "other end" are talking about the mentioned entity or the mentioning entity? ++ Goffi _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: [email protected] _______________________________________________
