[JDEV] Jabber Clients: sending a single message to more than one person

Tue Mar 6 18:21:24 CST 2001

Ah.. I got the impression this was a client functionality proposal.. I'm
probably the one missing something :)

If that's the packet in the proposal, _obviously_ the server would be the
one receiving and interpreting it.  My mistake.  Guess this is basically a
more developed version of what I was talking about.  Thanks for making me
re-examine.
