Don't forget to remove any identifying information from your vcard
before joining - especially <JABBERID/>. Change your avatar, too.
Well, that's why M-Link (and Prosody?) won't forward vCards for

leak the moderators JID.
Right, at least on some clients.
an admin decides to make it a non-anonymous room, I'll discover
that too late - even discoing the room beforehand leaves a window
of opportunity to expose my shame.
Registering a new account ([email protected] for example) is
