Retiring a channel #58

Closed MaxF12 closed 2 years ago

MaxF12 commented 2 years ago

Two things that might need clarification:

Retiring a channel that is currently joined should probably force an automatic leave
Should there be a Retired option for the MC_CHANNEL_STATE frame so the server knows if a channel was retired successfully?

Discussion landed on: we should add a Retired state to the MC_CHANNEL_CLIENT_STATE frame, and we should send it from client when we see a MC_CHANNEL_RETIRE. Server cannot announce a new channel reusing that id if it has previously sent an ANNOUNCE and has not yet seen a Retire in a MC_CHANNEL_CLIENT_STATE frame.
