I don't want to promise too much, but in time for Vancouver I'll probably finish some code that sends you all sorts of helpful information when you join the jabber room. There is a standardized "room subject" message but not all IM clients show you that, so I plan to have it sent as a one-off message when you join the chatroom. Further discussion, if any, on the tools-disc...@ietf.org list. Peter -- Peter Saint-Andre https://stpeter.im/
