Another observation regarding XMPP multi-user chat (aka chat-rooms) to follow on my previous entry. This one is also an odd one.
It appears that Openfire uses all-lowercase names for multi-user chat rooms. So if your room’s name is “myRoom”, it will be saved as “myroom”.
Could not find anything to require this in the XMPP specifications for multi-user chat.
Oddness.
UPDATE:
This is apparently the way it is supposed to be according to the XMPP protocol or as explained to me on the Openfire dev boards.

It seems this flies in the face of the XMPP MUC specification. You should file a bug with OpenFire to have this fixed.
Done.
