[Standards] UPDATED: XEP-0045 (Multi-User Chat)

Version 1.35.0 of XEP-0045 (Multi-User Chat) has been released. Abstract: This specification defines an XMPP protocol extension for multi-user text chat, whereby multiple XMPP users can exchange messages in the context of a room or channel, similar to Internet Relay Chat (IRC). In addition to standard chatroom features such as room topics and invitations, the protocol defines a strong room control model, including the ability to kick and ban users, to name room moderators and administrators, to require membership or passwords in order to join the room, etc. Changelog: * Remove references to using resourceparts when banning users. * Explicitly disallow Ban List modifications that clash with 'Banning a User' conditions. * Status code purpose no longer hints that recipient is the affected user * Improved 'Service Removes Non-Member' example. * Clarify usage of presence stanzas when removing a non-member from a members-only room. * Replace inappropriate RFC 2119 key word usage in §9.7. * Presence sent to occupants of a destroyed room includes a <destroy/> element. * Explicitly use bare JIDs when operating on affiliations. * Allow non-owners to retrieve owner and admin lists in non-anonymous rooms. * Members should be allowed to retrieve the member list only in non- anonymous rooms.
