+<p>Friending in zot is accomplished by sending a refresh packet to a specific channel which indicates a permission change has been made by the sender which affects the target channel. The hub controlling the target channel does targetted discovery (a zot-finger request requesting permissions for the local channel). These are decoded here, and if necessary and abook structure (addressbook) is created to store the permissions assigned to this channel.</p>
+<p>Initially these abook structures are created with a 'pending' flag, so that no reverse permissions are implied until this is approved by the owner channel. A channel can also auto-populate permissions in return and send back a refresh packet of its own. This is used by forum and group communication channels so that friending and membership in the channel's "club" is automatic.</p>
