At 11:53 on 27 May 2001,, Al sounded off on [JDEV] Slashdot over 
Jabber:

   I'm sure some users will appreciate it, but I dunno if u want that 
to be the default behaviour or not. In any case, I suggest u add an 
additional optional arg along the lines of "from <resource>" with a 
special keyword such as *, all, anywhere, or everywhere that tells it 
to ignore the resource all together. So, you might send "watch 
slashdot for linux from work" if u only wanted to receive it from 
work, or "watch slashdot for linux from *" if you wanted to receive 
it anywhere (I'd probably recommend * for this purpose as it strikes 
me as least likely to be used as an actual resource name). Just some 
thoughts.
