+**Fixed an incoherence in explanation of event sending to application services:** In one place early on in the document, there appeared a word „room”, but from context it seems like it was supposed to be „reason”. The author probably was „on autopilot” and said „room” on accident, given how the word „room” appears in 2 more places in that sentence. I imagine they typed „r” and then completed to „room” without thinking. Whatever the cause may be, one thing is certain: the sentence „event affects a room that the application service is interested in for another room” makes 0 logical sense. I read it 3 times, in absolute confusion, until I came to the conclusion that it's likely supposed to say „reason”. Hence, it has now been changed to that.
