'h' would stay outside of the stanza, since you need to be able to send it without having to send a stanza. And 'u' could always be in the stanza, since you'd never use it without having sent a stanza at the same time. C: <message u='1'/> S: <a h='1'/> Of course, I still question the need for 'u' at all if we're doing it like this. -Justin
