Hi Dave, I'm arguing for a paste XEP for some time, for many reasons: 1) I think pasting should be in a separate flux from chat message (most of time, not always) 2) I think external pastebin and other autopaste are Q&D workaround 3) I would like to be able to specify the kind of paste, specially for coding language 4) I would like to be able to have extension for paste, like the ability to comment parts when we are discussing about e.g. a snipped of code, or even propose modifications I'm not sure if this could suit your proposal, but if yes I would be all in favor attending that 3) and 4) would be possible (and not only for web clients). Why would you always need an URI in content node? It would be nice to put some pasted text in it, wouldn't it? Or I have missed something?
