Additionally, due to device constraints (as well as due to the potential to have multiple versions of the client deployed simultaneously), it is possible in the future to have clients that support fewer participants in a room than the room has been configured to support. To deal with this situation, when a client attempts to join a room, it includes the maximum number of participants it is capable of handling at one time. When determining whether to admit a new user, the Loop server takes into consideration both the configured room maximum size ''and'' the client capabilities of those clients currently in (and attempting to join) the session. | Additionally, due to device constraints (as well as due to the potential to have multiple versions of the client deployed simultaneously), it is possible in the future to have clients that support fewer participants in a room than the room has been configured to support.
