    How a client should handle unknown message types.

-   We've forgotten m.file...

-.. TODO-spec
-   It's really confusing that the m. prefix is used both for event types and
-   for msgtypes.  We should namespace them differently somehow.
 
 Each ``m.room.message`` MUST have a ``msgtype`` key which identifies the type
 of message being sent. Each type has their own required and optional keys, as
-outlined below:
+outlined below.
-
-``m.text``
-  Required keys:
-    - ``body`` : "string" - The body of the message.
-  Optional keys:
-    None.
-  Example:
-    ``{ "msgtype": "m.text", "body": "I am a fish" }``
-
-``m.emote``
-  Required keys:
-    - ``body`` : "string" - The emote action to perform.
-  Optional keys:
-    None.
-  Example:
-    ``{ "msgtype": "m.emote", "body": "tries to come up with a witty explanation" }``
-
-``m.notice``
-  Required keys:
-    - ``body`` : "string" - The body of the message.
-  Optional keys:
-    None.
-  Example:
-    ``{ "msgype": "m.notice", "body": "some kind of automated announcement" }``
-
-  A ``m.notice`` message should be considered similar to a plain ``m.text``
-  message except that clients should visually distinguish it in some way. It is
-  intended to be used by automated clients, such as bots, bridges, and other
-  entities, rather than humans. Additionally, such automated agents which watch
-  a room for messages and respond to them ought to ignore ``m.notice`` messages.
-  This helps to prevent infinite-loop situations where two automated clients
-  continuously exchange messages, as each responds to the other.
-
-``m.image``
