<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='intro'>
|
||
<p>The original Bookmarks specification (&xep0048;) used the widely available
|
||
Private XML Storage (&xep0049;), but stored all bookmarks in a single element.
|
||
When the specification was moved to the Standards Track and Draft, it was also
|
||
updated to use the user's Pubsub service (&xep0223;), but kept this single element
|
||
containing all bookmarks inside a single Pubsub item.</p>
|
||
<p>Most implementations have kept to the original, Private XML Storage based solution, and
|
||
while some newer implementations have used Pubsub, these are limited in capability by the use of
|
||
a single item, which prevents safe atomic updates of individual bookmarks.</p>
|
||
<p>Finally, while some clients used custom XML elements to store additional private metadata about
|
||
bookmarks, this was usually stripped when any bookmark was edited by another client.</p>
|
||
<p>This specification resolves all three issues by providing a new Bookmarks specification to migrate to,
|
||
and takes the opportunity to update the XML namespace in use as well. The URL storage is dropped,
|
||
since it is rarely used. Storage of URL bookmarks is therefore out of scope.</p>
|
||
<p>This specification was originally entitled "Bookmarks 2: This Time It's Serious". Any implication of a sense
|
||
of humour has been removed with the change in title.</p>
|
||
</section1>
|
||
|
||
<section1 topic="Outline of use">
|
||
<p>Clients store each bookmarked chatroom as a Pubsub item within the '&namespace;' node. Each
|
||
item SHALL have, as item id, the Room JID of the chatroom (eg, coven@chat.shakespeare.lit). While a client can
|
||
typically assume a chatroom based on &xep0045;, clients are free to store chatrooms based on any particular groupchat
|
||
protocol.</p>
|
||
<p>The payload of the item SHALL be a conference element qualified by the '&namespace;' namespace, with the following syntax:</p>

<p>A client interested in bookmarks SHOULD include the '&namespace;+notify' feature in its &xep0115;, as per &xep0163;, so that it receives notifications for updates done by other clients of the user, and reacts accordingly.

<p>Security considerations related to object persistence via publish-subscribe are described in <cite>XEP-0060</cite> and <cite>XEP-0223</cite>.</p>

<p>The client needs to make sure that the server actually supports the "http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub#publish-options" feature, before relying on it. If it's not supported, the client should configure the '&namespace;' node first (see <cite>xep-0060</cite>), before adding any bookmarks.</p>
