I like the idea, but what happens if I switch clients during a conversation? In your example, we chat with the desktop client. I think we are done, but do not close the chat window (I sometimes do that). Now I go away with my mobile client. If you send a message now, I guess the message will be send to the full JID of my desktop client and I will not get the message. Maybe a thread can expire somehow and after a time, we should send to the bare JID again doing the whole 'mine' thing again. Or am I missing something here? I'm do not know the way how chatting works with full and bare JIDs. Dirk -- "[Our enemies] never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we." (George W.
