<section2 topic='Motivation' anchor='motivation'>
<p>&xep0045; defines a full-featured technology for multi-user text conferencing in XMPP. By design, <cite>XEP-0045</cite> assumes that a conference room is hosted at a single service, which can be accessed from any point on the network. However, this assumption introduces a single point of failure for the conference room, since if occupants at a using domain lose connectivity to the hosting domain then they also lose connectivity to the room. In some deployment scenarios (and even on the open Internet) this behavior is suboptimal. Therefore, this document attempts to define a technology for distributing MUC rooms across multiple services.</p>

<section2 topic='Joining a Room' anchor='join'>
<p>When a user attempts to join a source room, the firsthost determines if it will invite the user to join a shadow at a peerhost instead. The process for determining when to send invitations is implementation specific and might be subject to configuration at the firsthost (e.g., the firsthost might send invitations only to users of a domain associated with the peerhost and only after a certain number of such users have joined the room at the firsthost).</p>
<p>To begin, a user at the peerhost attempts to join the source room at the firsthost:</p>

<section2 topic='Finding a Room' anchor='find'>
<p>XEP-0045 specifies that rooms can be found on a chat service using &xep0030;.</p>
<p>A user at a peerhost could send a service discovery items ("disco#items") request to the firsthost in order to find the source room. However, this introduces a dependency on communication with the firsthost, and we have stipulated that such communication might not be available.</p>
<p>Alternatively, the peerhost could keep a list of the shadow rooms that it hosts. From the perspective of the user at the peerhost, these rooms are local in the sense that the user can join the shadow and thereby interact with the occupants of the shadow (and, if server-to-server communication is working, with the occupants of the source). This approach is RECOMMENDED.</p>
<p>Note: If the peerhost frequently loses communications with the firsthost and the list of rooms located at the firsthost is large, the peerhost will want to use a more efficient method of synchronizing its room list than sending disco#items requests and receiving large disco#items results. However, methods for optimizing this synchronization process are out of scope for this specification.</p>
<p>To find rooms on the peerhost, the local user sends a "disco#items" request to the peerhost.</p>
