I am resending this message from yesterday because we really need a response. I don't want to move away from the specification but we want to code this in a manner that makes sense. We currently use OpenFire and OpenFire doesn't event seem to support this event at all so it shouldn't be an issue with OpenFire. We are writing our own server so we can code it to behave the way we want. Does anyone have any thoughts here? Thanks, Todd Herman
