<p>When an <r/> element ("request") is received, the recipient MUST acknowledge it by sending an <a/> element to the sender containing a value of 'h' that is equal to the number of stanzas handled by the recipient of the <r/> element. The response SHOULD be sent as soon as possible after receiving the <r/> element, and MUST NOT be withheld for any condition other than a timeout. For example, a client with a slow connection might want to collect many stanzas over a period of time before acking, and a server might want to throttle incoming stanzas. The sender does not have to wait for an ack to continue sending stanzas. Because acks indicate stanza acceptance, a server that is throttling stanzas MUST delay the response until the client is no longer being penalized (but SHOULD notify the client that it is throttling incoming stanzas, as described under <link url='#throttling'>Throttling</link>).</p>

<ul>

<li>As an initiating entity, send <enable/> with no attributes, and ignore the attributes on the <enabled/> response.</li>
|
||||
<li>As a receiving entity, ignore the attributes on the <enable/> element received, and respond via <enabled/> with no attributes.</li>

<li>When receiving an <r/> element, immediately respond via an <a/> element where the value of 'h' returned is the sequence number of the last handled stanza.</li>
|
||||
<li>Keep an integer X for this stream session, initially set to zero. When about to send a stanza, first put the stanza (paired with the current value of X) in an "unacknowleged" queue. Then send the stanza over the wire with <r/> to request acknowledgement of that outbond stanza, and increment X by 1. When receiving an <r/> or <a/> element with an 'h' attribute, all stanzas whose paired value (X at the time of queueing) is less than or equal to the value of 'h' can be removed from the unacknowledged queue.</li>

||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>This is enough of an implementation to minimally satisfy the peer, and allows basic tracking of each outbound stanza. If the stream connection is broken, the application has a queue of unacknowledged stanzas that it can choose to handle appropriately (e.g., warn a human user or silently send after reconnecting).</p>
