<title>Personal Eventing via Pubsub</title>
<title>Personal Eventing Protocol</title>
<abstract>This specification defines semantics for using the XMPP publish-subscribe protocol to broadcast state change events associated with an instant messaging and presence account. This profile of pubsub therefore enables a standard XMPP user account to function as a virtual pubsub service, easing the discovery of syndicated data and event notifications associated with such an account.</abstract>

<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='intro'>
<section2 topic='Motivation' anchor='motivation'>
<p>Personal eventing provides a way for a Jabber/XMPP user to send updates or "events" to other users, who are typically contacts in the user's roster. An event can be anything that a user wants to make known to other people, such as those described in &xep0080;, &xep0107;, &xep0108;, and &xep0118;. While the XMPP &xep0060; extension ("pubsub") can be used to broadcast such events associated, the full pubsub protocol is often thought of as complicated and therefore has not been widely implemented.
<note>Instead, many "extended presence" formats are currently sent using the &PRESENCE; stanza type; unfortunately, this overloads presence, results in unnecessary presence traffic, and does not provide fine-grained control over access. The use of publish-subscribe rather than presence is therefore preferable.</note> To make publish-subscribe functionality more accessible (especially to instant messaging and presence applications that conform to &xmppim;), this document defines a simplified subset of pubsub that can be followed by instant messaging client and server developers to more easily deploy personal eventing services across the Jabber/XMPP network. We label this subset "Personal Eventing via Pubsub" or PEP.</p>

<li><p>When a PEP service receives initial presence information from a subscriber's resource with a non-negative priority and including <cite>XEP-0115</cite> information that indicates an interest in the data format, it MUST generate a notification containing the last published item for that node and send it to the newly-available resource.</p></li>

<li><p>As an exception to the foregoing MUST rules, a PEP service MUST NOT send notifications to a subscriber if the user has blocked the subscriber from receiving all or any kinds of stanza (presence, message, IQ, or any combination thereof) using communications blocking as specified in &xep0016; or &xep0191;.</p></li>
