I don't want to promise too much, but in time for Vancouver I'llprobably finish some code that sends you all sorts of helpful
information when you join the jabber room. There is a standardized "room
subject" message but not all IM clients show you that, so I plan to have
it sent as a one-off message when you join the chatroom.
Further discussion, if any, on the tools-discuss@xxxxxxxx list.
I'd be happy to help, and will meander toward that list.
One thing for this August Body to consider - we can (quite) easily have new occupants to the room not be "participants" - in the XEP-0045 sense of the term. This would mean new occupants would lack voice, and be unable to add to the discussion - until they've jumped through some hoops.
One such hoop might be acknowledging the (privately sent) Note Well message (thus equating XEP-0045 Participant with IETF Participant to some degree). Another might be that we tell them to go away if their XEP-0054 vCard doesn't include sufficient detail (like their full name and email address, for example), taking us a step toward remote registration.
