Thank you very much for your help! I adapted the ProtoXEP draft accordingly.

Good idea! :)
I changed this also.

Do you have any opinion on the disco for individual games?
I see basically three ways to do it:

1. include games in normal disco as feature
2. use info/item nodes in normal disco
3. some "own" third way, as we did

Number 1 could blow up the disco response considerably, while Number 2
and 3 allow for a separate query for games. Unfortunately, I can't come
up with a nice way to do Number 2.
Our current solution is very similar to a disco#items query (e.g. MUC
room query). Are there any good reasons not to do it that way?
