Hi, I also tripped over this today although in a slightly different context. And my issues are more about publish-options from XEP-0060 in general rather than XEP-0223 in particular.
My interpretation is as follows. - publish-options can contain arbitrary form fields. - If a certain form field is registered with the registry [1] all server implementations MUST behave according to the specification in [1]. - The description in [1] "Forms enabling publication with options; each field must specify whether it defines METADATA to be attached to the item, a per-item OVERRIDE of the node configuration, or a PRECONDITION to be checked against the node configuration." is a hint to other people who might want to register more form fields and NOT a hint that should ever be displayed to the end user. - Currently only "pubsub#access_model" is defined with the registrar. So when the server supports publish-options and I set a publish option of access_model=whitelist it is guaranteed that all servers will reject the publication if the access_model is not whitelist - The behavior of setting a publish-option of persist-items as we can see in the examples of XEP-0223 is completely unspecified because it hasn't been registered. Is this interpretation correct? cheers Daniel [1]: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html#registrar-formtypes-publish 2016-10-21 23:47 GMT+02:00 forenjunkie <forenjun...@chello.at>: > Hi, > Maybe its just my impression but it seems there is not much Server support > for this XEP > > Especially #publish-options is missing from a lot of servers. > Missing as in the server is capable of it but does deliberately not publish > that feature. > > What is the intention behind this option? is it still accurate and a MUST? > Could someone explain in detail why this has to be set. > > thanks > > best wishes > lovetox > > _______________________________________________ > Standards mailing list > Info: https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards > Unsubscribe: standards-unsubscr...@xmpp.org > _______________________________________________ > _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: standards-unsubscr...@xmpp.org _______________________________________________
