XMPP DevCon day 2

Posted by Jérôme Sautret on 26 Feb 2008 at 10:58
Quick summary of the second and last day of the XMPP DevCon.

On this second day, participants have talked about file transfer. There is some incompatible different needs (streaming vs offline/MUC, web clients constraints, NAT...), so we've finally focused on a negotiation protocol that would allow clients to choose the right method. The next discussion was about server side messages archiving. IMAP was considered as an option, but XEP-0136 seems almost fine. We've finally addressed some miscellaneous topics like SSO/OAuth (how to share XMPP authentication with web applications) and distributed MUC (so that people can consider replacing IRC with MUC) which led us to consider SRV records for XMPP services.
