I don't know for sure if the lastest SVN still has this, but suddenly nobody in the room could see my messages anymore, while for me everything appeared to be normal and I could see their messages.

The latest SVN has far worse than this actually. ;D I haven't finished moving the chatrooms stuff over properly to it's new jid so ... yeah. =) You can kinda connect, and play make-believe that you are actually talking in a chatroom, but at the end of the day . . . no. ;)

Anyway, fear not, fixing groupchat is a requirement for 0.7.

I can reproduce this trivially. Seems to occur after about 4 minutes of being idle. (I haven't verified that it's idleness that causes it) The odd thing is, from AIM's perspective, you are still there. You continue to receive messages, as you say, and are still listed as in the chatroom. When you kill the connection, they can see you leave. The -only- thing that stops working is sending messages to the room. Bizarre! I'm not entirely convinced that this isn't some garbage collection routine. Basically that I'm not properly tieing something together and it's saying "eh, yur outta here". Anyway, still hasn't been fixed. Working on it.
