Btw does anyone have this [Group Chat 1.0] protocol anywhere? Was searching hard for it and didn't find

the original GC 1.0?

Only mentions of it in XEP 0045

jonas’, yes

I think somebody tried to find it when the removal of GC 1.0 was discussed

but I’m not sure whether it has been found

Funny. No wonder this protocol fell out of use

You'll have to do the same to MUC.

Well it's not https://matthewwild.co.uk/uploads/conferencing.html

MattJ, thanks!

No, that seems to be an alternative proposal (that became or was replaced by XEP-0045)

Ah, it's documented here: https://matthewwild.co.uk/uploads/protocol.html

(search for jabber:iq:conference )

It's... very short

jonas’ [16:17]: > I think somebody tried to find it when the removal of GC 1.0 was discussed I wanted to get a council vote to remove it last year, but unfortunately all I got was "make a PR and don't dare making _it_ worse", for undefined "it" and "worse".

And then I started removing the cruft from 0045 and it turned out harder than I thought initially, and then - EBUSY
