    // listen for new topics
    topics.on( "add", function( topic ){
        // called until a new topic arrived
    });

    // listen for removed topics
    topics.on( "remove", function( topic ){
        // called until a topic was removed
    });

    // listen for topic list changes
    topics.on( "change", function( topicList ){
        // beside the `add` and `remove` events a single "change" event will be emitted
    });
