[jdev] Fwd: xep-0201

[Simon Tennant (buddycloud)]

  The current buddycloud client (buddycloud.googlecode.com) does 
threaded chats.  For ease of use, we restrict to two levels: topics and 
replies which makes more sense on the mobile. That said, it's a feature 
we plan on phasing out for chats: it's very confusing for users.

Confusing because in realtime chat, we chat linearly rather than in threads.

On buddycloud channels (less realtime, less "chat") threads make a lot 
of sense and let users reply to posts like "here is a video of my cat" 
with a comment.  But that is all pub-sub and not chat although this may 
help your thinking in the area.
