Hi Juha,

I wrote a patch that does this about 6 weeks ago, although it probably will not compile against 1.2x any more. It turned out to be quite a big patch (about 1600 lines) although some of it was cosmetic. The big "problem" with adding support for message-summary is that the presence module implements two specific event RFCs, "presence" and "presence.winfo."  Much of the logic in the module assumes this (or did at the time).

I'm in two minds about bringing the patch up to date. On the one hand, it does achieve what you want, if somewhat inelegantly. On the other hand, it seems to me to be the wrong way to do it: a better solution would be to implement an event notification module that implements support for SUBSCRIBE, NOTIFY, and PUBLISH in a generic manner; and then to implement event packages on top of that.

For the record, we ended up not using the message summary event package for our application because it leaves unsolved the problem of presenting the list of available messages to the client.

is the current presence server implementation modular what comes to
adding new event packages?  if so, could a short developer section be
added to presence/README file that would tell what needs to be changed
when a new event package is added?  

as i mentioned earlier, i would be interested in message waiting
indication event package.
