17:55:37 <[bjoern]> as in, they see it, they type it. why would that even be relevant there?
17:57:08 <deltab> as with email your jabber address has one part that identifies which server to contact and one that identifies you to that server
17:58:13 <deltab> messages to you go to your server and thence to you
17:58:51 <[bjoern]> So if I register my account with X and then want to chat in a room on Y, and X is offline, I've got a problem?
17:59:12 <deltab> yes

18:01:27 <[bjoern]> yeah
18:01:58 <deltab> it'd make it easier to give your jabber address to other people
18:02:08 <[bjoern]> why would I do that?

18:05:41 <deltab> maybe it also affects how you're identified in chat rooms; I don't know
18:05:55 <[bjoern]> that sounds awfully like it'd be used ... right
18:06:27 <deltab> jabber's chatrooms are, afaik, like mailing lists
