If chatrooms are always associated with existing voice conferences (in a
way Dimdim conference is associated with voice conference now) that should
be OK.
To be more precise: there won't be any creating new chatrooms from user
portal (just as today there isn't any creating new conferences from user
portal). Admin creates conferences (and by extension chatrooms) for end
user manually or automatically (if they are members of groups that have
automatic creation of conferences enabled).

How would openfire know who is a "member" ("participant") in this context?
sipXconfig does not have any notion of pre-configured conferences at the
moment. The owner can invite anyone at any point, but there is no "all" here.

Makes sense to me. When you disconnect the participant from voice
conference he or she should be removed from chat room. Same with invites.
That said: sipXconfig will not be trying to enforce the chatroom guest list
based on current participant guest list: since it does not monitor all the
conferences all the time.

What's an "interceptor" command?
