As noted [1] the XSF's new Technical Review Team [2] has decided to kick
off its activities with a review of XEP-0045: Multi-User Chat. [3] This
week I am hoping that everyone has a chance to read and review Sections
1 through 6 (the first ~20 pages). I have completed my own review and I
have found a number of editorial issues that I shall be fixing, but
nothing huge. In particular:

1. I'd like to rename "Unsecured Room" to "Unprotected Room" because
"security" is such a vague concept and because the antonym is "Password
*Protected* Room".

2. I'd like to rename Section 5 "Roles, Affiliations, and Privileges"
and describe roles and affiliations as "shortcuts" to certain bundles of
privileges.

3. I think we need examples of error flows in Section 6 (e.g., what does
the client return if it doesn't support the well-known service discovery
node "http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#rooms";).

What other issues have you found during your reading of XEP-0045
(Sections 1 through 6)?

Peter
