The primary representation of a participant in a MIX channel is a proxy JID, which is an anonymized JID using the same domain as the channel and with the name of the channel encoded, using the format "&lt;channel&gt;+&lt;generated identifier&gt;@&lt;mix domain&gt;". They generated identifier MUST NOT contain the '+' characters. The Channel name MAY contain the '+' character. For example in the channel 'coven@mix.shakespeare.example', the user 'hag66@shakespeare.example' might have a proxy JID of 'coven+123456@mix.shakespeare.example'. The reason for the proxy JID is to support JID Hidden channels. Proxy JIDs are also used in JID Visible channels, for consistency and to enable switching of JID visibility. The "urn:xmpp:mix:nodes:jidmap" node maps from proxy JID to real JID. While a user is a participant in a Channel, the mapping between real JID and proxy JID MUST NOT be changed,

<p>
The full JIDs held in the presence nodes are anonymized using a similar mechanism. First the bare JID is mapped to a bare proxy JID, using the mapping held in the "urn:xmpp:mix:nodes:jidmap" node for the bare JID. Then the resource is replaced with a generated value. For example, 'hag66@shakespeare.example' in the channel coven might have a proxy JID of 'coven+123456@mix.shakespeare.example/789'. There is no client visible mapping of proxy full JIDs maintained as this is not needed. The MIX channel will need to maintain a mapping, to support directly addressing clients, such as for client to client disco#info queries. While an anonymized JID is held in the presence node, the mapping to real JID MUST NOT be changed. When an anonoymized full JID is added to the presence node, mapping to a real full JID that was previously in the presence node, the same anonymized JID as the previous time MAY be used or a different anonymized JID MAY be used.

<p>A user joins a channel by sending a MIX "join" command. There is no default set of nodes, so user MUST specify the set of nodes to be subscribed to. To achieve the equivalent service to MUC, a user would subscribe to messages, presence and subject.
This will lead to the server subscribing the user to each of the requested nodes associated with the channel. The MIX server will also add the user to the participant list by injecting a new item into the "urn:xmpp:mix:nodes:participants" node automatically.

A user may share presence information with the channel, for one or more online clients. Where a user shares presence information with a channel, the channel is entered by the user's server into the user's roster when the user subscribes to the channel. When an XMPP client comes online or changes presence status, this will be communicated by the user to the user's server using broadcast presence. The user's XMPP server is then responsible to share this presence information to each entry in the roster and in particular to each MIX channel in the roster. The MIX channel will update the "urn:xmpp:mix:nodes:presence" node with any change of status and the updated presence information and then share this updated presence with users subscribed to this node, as described below. When the user sets an explicit status, this is used to modify the presence node in the channel. When a client being used by the user goes offline, the associated server will send presence status "unavailable" to the MIX channel, which will cause the full JID for that client to be removed from the presence node.
</p>
<p>
A channel may require that all channel participants share presence information with the channel, which is represented in the "urn:xmpp:mix:nodes:presence" node. If sharing presences is required by the channel, an XMPP client conforming to this specification SHALL share presence with the channel by including the channel in the user's roster. Note that the MIX server cannot generally enforce this, but it can require and enforce that when a message is sent to the channel, that the sender of the message is in the presence list.

Presence status and availability is set in a MIX channel by standard presence stanzas sent to the MIX channel by the user's server. User's wishing to receive presence updates will subscribe to the MIX channel presence node. Presence updates are sent out to subscribing using standard XEP-0045 compatible presence stanzas.

A user setting status is now used as an example. Unlike in &xep0045; where coming online is a special action, coming online in MIX is implicit when presence status is set. Going offline is a achieved by setting presence status to unavailable, which removes the client full JID entry from the presence node. When a user sets a presence status, the user's server sends updated presence to the MIX channel, and the MIX server then publishes the user's availability to the "urn:xmpp:mix:nodes:presence" node. If there is not an item named by the full JID of the client with updated presence status, this item is created.

There is the possibility that the message associated with the user going offline will be lost. If this happens, "ghost" entries will appear in the presence node. A MIX server may take steps to address this, for example by probing client with a disco for presence items that remain unchanged for a long period.

It is desirable to prevent clients from going offline briefly and then coming back online again, as this will lead to "flapping presence". The recommended approach to achieve this is use of &xep0198; to maintain an XMPP client connection in the event of short term TCP failure.

MIX channels are always explicitly destroyed by an owner of the channel or by a server operator. There is no concept of temporary channel, equivalent to &xep0045; temporary room which is automatically destroyed by the server when the users leave. However, channels MAY be configured with an explicit lifetime, after which the channel MUST be removed by the MIX server. Where a channel is created for ad hoc use, it may be desirable to keep the channel for history reference or for re-use by the same set of users.
