Hi, According to the documentation if the force-active parameter is set to 0, openser will consult the xcap_table when a SUBCRIBE for presence comes in. If there is no entry in the xcap_table, the watcher will receive NOTIFY messages with an empty body until the presentity authorizes the watcher. However, in my tests it doesn't seem to matter to what value I set force_active. The watcher always gets the presence state of the presentity. For my current tests this is fine as I don't have support for xcap, but it looks wrong to me. Can someone explain me how the force-active parameter works? I am using the devel version of openser.
