*** Original post on bio 1510 at 2012-06-13 13:32:00 UTC *** Google Talk apparently supports a slightly different form of MUCs...[1] includes a more thorough discussion. The room name has to be of the form: "private-chat-<uuid>", and the server is groupchat.google.com. Of course we can't actually force these / do it automatically since you can join MUCS from a federated network via GTalk (such as ones on conference.jabber.org).

*** Original post on bio 1510 at 2012-11-01 13:58:45 UTC *** I got invited to join a MUC and the error console had the following message: Timestamp: 11/1/2012 9:45:59 AM Error: Trying to create a conversation; buddy not present: private-chat-afed1703-846f-4aa0-99fb-ae307b5fbg94@groupchat.google.com Source Code: xmpp (Note I changed random characters in the UUID.) The other fun bit is that all the users are random sets of characters (except me, I actually set my display name). Besides that it all seems to work OK. The voice / founder flags are randomly being displayed, but that's probably GTalk doing weird things.

*** Original post on bio 1510 at 2013-02-06 11:42:11 UTC *** A similar Pidgin ticket that has some interesting information: https://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/14664
So I just checked this out again and I can't seem to get gmail to send me an invite, I get system messages: "foo's client doesn't support chats" or something. If someone can figure out a way to invite an XMPP client, let me know.
Not sure if these MUCs still exist, but we should check.

I suspect the answer is "no" because hangouts, but I could do a quick experiment, if you'd like.

We get no notification of this over XMPP anymore.
