<li>&xep0313; (MAM) is used for all history access, with each node being individually addressable for MAM queries. This simplifies implementation compared to MUC (which had a specialized and rather limited history retrieval mechanism).</li>
<li>A client can achieve a 'quick resync' of a node by requesting just those changes it has not yet received, using standard MAM protocol. This solves the old MUC issue of either receiving duplicate messages when rejoining a room or potentially missing messages.</li>
<li>Because MAM is used for history, only those nodes that have a 'current value' need to store any items in them &mdash; e.g., 'urn:xmpp:mix:nodes:presence' and 'urn:xmpp:mix:nodes:subject' would store their current values (with older values being queryable through MAM), while 'urn:xmpp:mix:nodes:messages' would store no items.</li>

Name and Description of the channel apply to the whole channel and are will usually be changed infrequently. This contrasts to Subject, which is more likely to change frequently and will often reflect the topic being discussed which has narrower scope than channel as a whole.

Setting and sharing subject uses a message with subject element, in a manner compatible with &xep0045;. Clients MAY also write or access this node using pubsub.

When a user subscribes to the Subject Node, this will cause the channel to send Subject messages to the user's server using the user's bare JID. This is done on initial user subscription and on subject change. Clients MAY directly read the channel subject from the Subject Node using PubSub.

<section3 topic="Setting the Channel Subject" anchor="set-subject">
<p>
Setting the subject for a channel follows a similar procedure to sending a message. An XMPP client will send a message setting the subject directly to the MIX channel. Note that where multiple language variants are used, the subject is repeated and each subject MUST include a language reference.
</p>
<example caption="User Sets Channel Subject"><![CDATA[

<subject xml:lang="de">Wie benutzt man Kröten</subject>
</message>
]]></example>
<p>
This message is received by the MIX channel, which will set the Subject Node for the channel, and then distribute the message to participants that are subscribed to the Subject Node, with the message addressed to the participants server using the participant's bare JID.

<p>
When a new Participant joins a channel and subscribes to the Subject Node, the channel MUST send to the participant's server (using the participant's bare JID) a message with the current subject. An XMPP Client MAY directly read the Subject node using &xep0060;.
</p>

<section3 topic='Telling another User about a Channel' anchor='usecase-user-tell'>
<p>
A convenient way to reference another channel is to use &xep0372; which enables the JID of a channel to be shared. This might be used simply to inform the message recipient about the channel or as mechanism to invite the user to join the channel. This is useful as an invitation mechanism to a channel that any user can join or where the invitee knows that the user is allowed to join (e.g., because the channel is for all users in an organization).
