And I agree that often you want to pursue communication (either one-to-one or many-to-many) after receiving an alert. So send alerts to a chatroom or specifying the chatroom where discussion can happen is important. I think we can handle the latter case with a 'replyroom' header in the pubsub notification (but we don't have any examples of that in XEP-0060 yet). Peter -- Peter Saint-Andre https://stpeter.im/
