|

<p>Features are negotiated though the exchange of &IQ; or &MESSAGE; stanzas containing <feature/> child elements qualified by the 'http://jabber.org/protocol/feature-neg' namespace. However, this <feature/> element is simply a wrapper for structured data encapsulated in the &xep0004; protocol. <note>Earlier versions of this document defined a structured data format to handle the feature negotiation workflow; versions later than 0.4 use <cite>Data Forms</cite>, i.e., the 'jabber:x:data' namespace.</note></p>
|
||||
<p>In order to begin a negotation, the initiator sends an &IQ; stanza of type "get" (or a &MESSAGE; stanza type "normal") to the recipient with a single <feature/> element containing a data form of type "form" which defines the available options for one or more features. Each feature is represented as an x-data "field".</p>

<p>In order to begin a negotation, the initiator sends an &IQ; stanza of type "get" (or a &MESSAGE; stanza type "normal" - see <cite>Chat Session Negotiation</cite> for examples) to the recipient with a single <feature/> element containing a data form of type "form" which defines the available options for one or more features. Each feature is represented as an x-data "field".</p>
|
||||
<p>The recipient SHOULD examine each feature and the values of the options provided. In order to indicate preferred values, the recipient then SHOULD specify one value for each feature and return a data form of type "submit" to the initiator in an &IQ; stanza of type "result" (or a &MESSAGE; stanza type "normal").</p>
|
||||
<p>The following examples show some likely scenarios for feature negotiation between entities. Further examples can be found in using protocols, such as <cite>File Transfer</cite>.</p>

<p>Security considerations are the responsibility of the using protocol.</p>
|
||||
<p>If the responding entity responds to the initiating entity or returns an error (other than a &unavailable; response to an &IQ; request), the initiating entity will effectively discover the presence of the responding entity's resource. Due care must therefore be exercised in determining how to respond (or whether to respond at all to a &MESSAGE; request). For examples, the responding entity SHOULD NOT <em>automatically</em> (i.e. without first asking its human user) either respond to the initiating entity's request or return a specific error unless the initiating entity is subscribing to the responding entity's presence (and the responding entity's presence is not currently "invisible" to the initiating entity). Note: There should be no need for the responding entity's client to consult its block list, since if the initiating entity is on the list then the responding entity would not receive any requests from the initiating entity anyway.</p>
