Smack requests getAdmins() in wrong MUC namespace

Hi.

I just discovered, that Smack sends the MUC getAdmins() request in the wrong namespace.

Smack sends in #owner namespace:

The specification says, it must be in #admin namespace:

http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html#modifyadmin





The whole method getAffiliatesByOwner() doesn’t make much sense (it is not specified by XMPP) and is only called by getAdmins().

This looks like something that has been overseen when SMACK-371 was fixed. At the time the MUC code for Smack was written (years ago) the XEP in fact stated that the #owner namespace should be used for most use-cases.

Thanks for reporting!

Just to comment, it may have been like this to match Openfire, which still may have it backwards as well.

I did OF-98 together with SMACK-371, so Openfire should be save.
