           Summary: Update mentions of MSN switchboards to refer to
                    Conference instead of TargetHandleType=None
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: git master
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: tp-spec
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: danielle.madeley at collabora.co.uk
         QAContact: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org


http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/spec/Channel.html#org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Channel.TargetHandle

"""
This is fixed for the lifetime of the channel, so channels which could
potentially be used to communicate with multiple contacts (such as streamed
media calls defined by their members, or ad-hoc chatrooms like MSN
switchboards) must have TargetHandleType set to Handle_Type_None and
TargetHandle set to 0.
"""

We should clarify this to say that Conference should be used to supercede
channels that get transformed into multi-user-chats.

The preamble of Chan.Type.Text should possibly also be clarified.
