I think they haven't been updated to use Conference, but I think it 
should be basically the same as how Gabble does, with the caveats that 
you're not invited, you're just there; and the channel has 
TargetHandleType None. So pretty much how things stand, except that 1-1 
chats should have THT Contact and no Group interface.

(Butterfly people, correct me if I'm wrong and this is implemented, or 
this is not how it should look.)
