<p>The client can determine when the interim roster pushes have ended by comparing the version number it received on the empty &QUERY; element against the version number it receives in roster pushes. The client MUST NOT process any of the interim roster pushes until it has processed all of them (this helps to prevent partial processing if the client loses its connection to the server before it has received all of the interim roster pushes).</p>

<p>When the server sends subsequent roster pushes to the client, it MUST include the updated roster version number. Roster pushes MUST occur in sequence order. The version number contained in a roster push MUST be unique. A "change to the roster" is any addition of, update to, or removal of a roster item that would result in a roster push, including changes in subscription states, as described in <cite>RFC 3921</cite> or <cite>rfc3921bis</cite>.</p>
