Probably it makes sense to do what we do in disco: return an empty
element. Here I think that would be the <items/> element, like so:

<iq type='result'
    from='pubsub.shakespeare.lit'
    to='francisco at denmark.lit/barracks'
    id='items1'>
  <pubsub xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub'>
    <items node='princely_musings'/>
  </pubsub>
</iq>
