<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='intro'>
<p>&xep0060; and &xep0163; can be used to publish a wide variety of "extended presence" information about users. This document specifies an extended presence payload format that communicates information about the chatrooms a user visits. This information may be of interest to a user's contacts and can also be used in social networking applications.</p>
</section1>
<section1 topic='Protocol' anchor='protocol'>
<section2 topic='Container Element and Child Elements' anchor='protocol-elements'>
<p>Information about chatrooms is provided by the user (or automated integration with Jabber, IRC, or other systems) and is propagated on the network by the user's client. The information container for chatting data is a &lt;room/&gt; element that is qualified by the 'urn:xmpp:chatting:0' namespace &VNOTE;. The chatting information itself is provided as the XML character data of the following children of the &lt;room/&gt; element:</p>
<table caption='Child Elements'>
<tr>
<th>Element</th>
<th>Description</th>
<th>Example</th>
<th>Datatype</th>
<th>Inclusion</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>name</td>
<td>The name of the chatroom</td>
<td>Jabber Development</td>
<td>xs:string</td>
<td>OPTIONAL</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>topic</td>
<td>The current topic of discussion in the room</td>
<td>BOSH meeting</td>
<td>xs:string</td>
<td>OPTIONAL</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>uri</td>
<td>A URI for the room (this SHOULD be an XMPP URI or IRI in accordance with &rfc5122; but MAY use some other URI scheme, such as the irc: scheme)</td>
<td>xmpp:jdev@conference.jabber.org</td>
<td>xs:anyURI</td>
<td>REQUIRED</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>NOTE: The datatypes specified above are defined in &w3xmlschema2;.</p>
</section2>
<section2 topic='Transport Mechanism' anchor='protocol-transport'>
<p>When a user joins a room, its client MAY publish that fact to a PEP node whose NodeID is "urn:xmpp:chatting:0" &VNOTE; or to a generic pubsub node. Because chatroom information is not pure presence information and can change independently of the user's availability, it SHOULD NOT be provided as an extension to the &PRESENCE; stanza type.</p>

<uri>xmpp:jdev@conference.jabber.org</uri>

</item>

<p>The chatting information is then delivered to all subscribers:</p>

<p>When the user exits the room, the user's client SHOULD send an empty &lt;room/&gt; element with the same ItemID:</p>

<section1 topic='Security Considerations' anchor='security'>
<p>The chat rooms that a user visits may be sensitive. A client MUST provide a way for a user to configure which rooms or types of rooms will not be published (e.g., via user preferences).</p>

<p>This document requires no interaction with &IANA;.</p>

<section1 topic='XMPP Registrar Considerations' anchor='registrar'>
<section2 topic='Protocol Namespaces' anchor='registrar-ns'>
<p>This specification defines the following XML namespaces:</p>
<ul>
<li>urn:xmpp:chatting:0</li>
</ul>
<p>Upon advancement of this specification from a status of Experimental to a status of Draft, the &REGISTRAR; shall add the foregoing namespaces to the registry located at &NAMESPACES;, as described in Section 4 of &xep0053;.</p>
</section2>
<section2 topic='Namespace Versioning' anchor='registrar-versioning'>
<p>If the protocol defined in this specification undergoes a major revision that is not fully backward-compatible with an older version, or that contains significant new features, the XMPP Registrar shall increment the protocol version number found at the end of the XML namespaces defined herein, as described in Section 4 of <cite>XEP-0053</cite>.</p>
