<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='intro'>
<p>&xep0115; defines a way for entities to receive dynamically-updated information about &xep0030; capabilities, rather than polling for updates by sending repeated disco#info requests. However, there is no comparable method for receiving updated disco#items information (this might be helpful when the number of associated entities is large or dynamic, e.g., at a multi-user chat service). This document specifies such a method by re-using semantics from &xep0060;.</p>
</section1>
<section1 topic='Protocol' anchor='protocol'>
<p>Before a requesting entity asks for service discovery items with notifications, it SHOULD send directed presence to the responding entity so that the responding entity knows when to stop sending notifications.</p>
<example caption='Requesting entity sends presence'><![CDATA[
<presence from='bill@shakespeare.lit/globe' to='chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
]]></example>
<p>The requesting entity then sends a disco#items request to the responding entity, including a &lt;subscribe/&gt; element qualified by the 'http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub' namespace, which in turn specifies a node of 'http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'.</p>
<example caption='Requesting all items'><![CDATA[
<iq type='get'
from='bill@shakespeare.lit/globe'
to='chat.shakespeare.lit'
id='items1'>
<query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'>
<subscribe xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub'/>
</query>
</iq>
]]></example>
<p>If the responding entity does not recognize inclusion of the &lt;subscribe/&gt; element as a child of the &lt;query/&gt; element, it MUST return the service discovery items but MUST NOT send subsequent notifications to the requesting entity.</p>
<p>If the requesting entity did not share presence with the responding entity, the responding entity MUST return the service discovery items but SHOULD NOT send subsequent notifications to the requesting entity.</p>
<p>If the responding entity recognizes inclusion of the &lt;subscribe/&gt; element as a child of the &lt;query/&gt; element and the requesting entity is allowed to receive notifications, the responding entity MUST return the service discovery items (including a &lt;subscriptions/&gt; element) and SHOULD send subsequent notifications to the requesting entity.</p>
<example caption='Result-set for all items'><![CDATA[
<iq type='result'
from='chat.shakespeare.lit'
to='bill@shakespeare.lit/globe'
id='items1'>
<query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'>
<item jid='alls-well-that-ends-well@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
<item jid='as-you-like-it@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
<item jid='cleopatra@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
<item jid='comedy-of-errors@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
<item jid='coriolanus@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
<item jid='cymbeline@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
<item jid='hamlet@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
<item jid='henry-the-fourth-one@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
<item jid='henry-the-fourth-two@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
<item jid='henry-the-fifth@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
<subscription
jid='bill@shakespeare.lit'
subid='some-long-sub-id'
subscription='subscribed'/>
</query>
</iq>
]]></example>
<p>The responding entity then SHOULD send subsequent notifications to the requesting entity when associated items are added to or deleted from the potential result set.</p>
<example caption='A notification (new item)'><![CDATA[
<message from='chat.shakespeare.lit' to='bill@shakespeare.lit' id='foo'>
<event xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub#event'>
<items node='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'>
<item id='ae890ac52d0df67ed7cfdf51b644e901'>
<item xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'
jid='henry-the-fifth@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
</item>
</items>
</event>
</message>
]]></example>
<example caption='A notification (deleted item)'><![CDATA[
<message from='chat.shakespeare.lit' to='bill@shakespeare.lit' id='bar'>
<event xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub#event'>
<items node='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'/>
<retract id='fa890ca52d0df67de7fcfd51b644c701'>
<item xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'
jid='cardenio@chat.shakespeare.lit'/>
</retract>
</items>
</event>
</message>
]]></example>
<p>When the requesting entity goes offline, the responding entity will receive unavailable presence.</p>
<example caption='Responding entity receives unavailable presence'><![CDATA[
<presence from='bill@shakespeare.lit/globe'
to='chat.shakespeare.lit'
type='unavailable'/>
]]></example>
<p>The responding entity then MUST NOT send further notifications.</p>
