[JDEV] PubSub Subscription Requests

[Stephen Pendleton]

Kk, makes sense then if they remain constant. I can't make the nodes allow
open subscription since I do want the user to be able to turn on and off the
automatic subscription via the UI. What I am working on is a pubsub
implementation of location information (latitude, longitude), and I do want
the user to have the option of not allowing everyone to subscribe to this
data.

BTW, so far the pubsub implementation is working well!

Why not just configure the node to allow open subscription? Does your server
not
allow this??

Yeah, the should be. The Jabber Registrar should "register" those in
conjunction
with the FORM_TYPE of http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub. This allows you to
build this functionality into your client and have those field variable
names
enver change.

I see this is not explicitly spelled out in section 11 of the JEP as it
should
be.
