How to unban user in multi user chat room using smack-android:4.1.4

I'm using smack-android:4.1.4 to connect to xmpp server, and I use this code to connect to a multi user chat room on that server:

MultiUserChatManager mucManager = MultiUserChatManager.getInstanceFor(connection);
MultiUserChat muc = mucManager.getMultiUserChat(roomName);
muc.join(nickName,password,discussionHistory,timeout);

In this room if I'm an owner then I can kick or ban a user, to ban a user:

muc.banUser(userJID, reason);

and I can get the banned users list in this room:

List<Affiliate> bannedList = muc.getOutcasts();

QUESTION 1: how can I unban a user from the previous list? the problem is I couldn't find any function like:

//muc.unbanUser(String userJID);    // there's nothing close to this

I read the whole documentation but came to nothing, so what am I missing here?

I can get the jid of any banned user through the outcasts list:

String jid = outcast.getJid();  // where outcast is of type Affiliate

but no function to use this jid to unban the user.

Question 2: this question is related to rooms but not to the banned list issue, in some rooms I get the following exception:

PacketParserUtils? Failed to parse extension packet in Presence packet. Attributes: [email protected]/someUserNickName id=null

and it refers to some code inside the smack library classes, so it's not some uncaught exception inside my code,

what is the cause of this exception? and isn't there a way to handle such unparsed data?

I'm using ParsingExceptionCallback in other part of my application:

connection.setParsingExceptionCallback( parsingExceptionCallback );

but this function is not called for this case, is there any similar functions for MultiUserChat class ?

Solution

maybe making a user member will remove the jid from banned list? because according to xmpp a jid can not be in more than one list... how ever there are five lists in xmpp, one for owners,admins,members, none and banned.
