The only technical reason for doing only last message correction is a possible absence of unique id in sent message. Not having unique id is wrong so if someone wants to permit changes or retraction of own messages, it's a matter of the choice whether to do it or not. Proprietary services like Telegram, for example, set arbitrary business rules that only messages in the last 48 hours can be retracted/edited. I think such business rules are hard to enforce in federated service, and that poses a question if such functionality should be permitted at all. Maybe It's better not to try doing things you can't do well. -- Ненахов Андрей Директор ООО "Редсолюшн" (Челябинск) (351) 750-50-04 http://www.redsolution.ru _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: standards-unsubscr...@xmpp.org _______________________________________________
