Summer of Code 2017

= Participation =

The XSF is a confirmed mentoring organisation for Google Summer of Code 2017.

Dates
The various dates for the programme can be found on the Google Summer of Code 2017 Timeline.

Otherwise, all other info is on GSoC page

Overview
XMPP is an Internet protocol used in many fields, such as the Internet of Things, chat applications, voice and video calls, etc. It's what Google Talk uses, Whatsapp uses an XMPP-derivative protocol, Google Hangouts uses some aspects of XMPP internally, and as well as end-users it's used extensively by enterprises and governments.

The XSF is (for GSoC) an umbrella organisation for various XMPP-related projects. As such, there's two tiers involved - the XSF itself, which is responsible for catherding mentors to submit ideas, choosing students etc., and the software projects themselves that then mentor students. Anyone interested in participating in GSoC as an XSF student can join the gsoc@muc.xmpp.org MUC room, where various mentors will be available to answer questions and generally help. Although each idea below lists a possible mentor, this MUC is the best place to start.

As there are several disparate projects here, there's variety across several codebases in different languages and with significantly different aims, so take a look through all the ideas - there should be something for everyone here :)

Teaser Tasks
To assess students applying to GSoC for XSF projects we want them to have submitted some small patches to one of the XMPP projects in advance, as this gives us an idea of their general ability to interact with the projects and submit patches. These should only be an afternoon or two's work, and shouldn't be onerous!

A list of teaser tasks is given in the Project Ideas overview, but please join the chat rooms for the respective projects and discuss them there, where mentors will be able to help you and know what you're up to. There are different teasers for different codebases, and more teasers will be appearing here over the next few days.

Test Infrastructure for Metre

 * Software Project: Metre
 * Software URL: https://github.com/dwd/Metre
 * Software VCS URL: https://github.com/dwd/Metre
 * Software Description: Metre is an open source XMPP SBC (a perimeter S2S proxy).
 * Brief explanation: Metre doesn't have any unit or wider-scale testing code right now - or at least none that works properly. It should be possible to mock the networking and drive that from scripting, such that it can be tested even in the complex networking conditions encourntered in the wild. Fixing existing unit testing and adding more would also be useful.
 * Expected results: 80% (or higher) code coverage on an unattended automated test run.
 * Knowledge Prerequisite:
 * A little XMPP would be useful.
 * Code coverage tools (I can help with this though).
 * Network programming.
 * Difficulty: Medium
 * Implementation Language: C++11
 * Mentor: Dave Cridland
 * Contact Details: dave.cridland@surevine.com (Email/XMPP)

File Transfer policing for Metre

 * Software Project: Metre
 * Software URL: https://github.com/dwd/Metre
 * Software VCS URL: https://github.com/dwd/Metre
 * Software Description: Metre is an open source XMPP SBC (a perimeter S2S proxy).
 * Brief explanation: Metre sits between domains, and could police file transfers. There's a number of interesting features in this area - it could, for instance, act as a file transfer proxy, reterminating peer-to-peer sessions. It could

also virus-check files. I'd appreciate a student able to flesh out some concrete features here, but there's a wide scope.


 * Expected results: 80% (or higher) code coverage on an unattended automated test run.
 * Knowledge Prerequisite:
 * Solid XMPP, particularly Jingle File Transfer and Session Initiation - or an ability to learn fast.
 * Network programming.
 * Difficulty: Hard
 * Implementation Language: C++11
 * Mentor: Dave Cridland
 * Contact Details: dave.cridland@surevine.com (Email/XMPP)

Add support to MiniDNS for CNAME / DNAME (RFC 6672) redirection in queries and DNSSEC

 * Software Description: Smack is a highly modular and portable open source XMPP client library written in Java for JVMs and Android.
 * Brief explanation: OpenHAB is a 'smarthome' project, integrating almost any existing legacy protocols and gadgets to manage and control your home. By connecting the openHAB to XMPP and the extensions for Internet of Things (IoT) you can eliminate opening ports in your firewall to your local openHAB server and be able to share sensors and actuators in a secure way between HABs (Home Automation Busses). There is already a chat implementation based on Smack incorporated in the openHAB today. The project will

extend that and implement OSGI bindings and actions to be able to handle sensor and actuator data.


 * Expected results: The goal is not to implement 100% of each XEP but to get the minimal use case to start getting the openHAB connected over the XMPP-IoT network.
 * Integration of the implemented XEP-0323.
 * Integration of the implemented XEP-0324.
 * Integration of the implemented XEP-0325.
 * Integration of the implemented XEP-0347.

 * Software URL: https://igniterealtime.org/projects/spark
 * Software VCS URL: https://github.com/igniterealtime/Spark
 * Software Description: Spark is an Open Source, cross-platform, XMPP-based IM client optimized for businesses and organizations.
 * Brief explanation: XMPP makes use of digital certificates for security. Spark has very little support of the management of certificates that are used.
 * Expected results:
 * A UI that allows an end-user to manually approve or reject a certificate presented by an XMPP domain that is being authenticated against.
 * Management of previously accepted or denied certificates (and/or their issuers)
 * Interaction with online revocation lists
 * Support for mutual-authentication / client-sided certificates.
 * Knowledge Prerequisite:
 * UI implementation in Java
 * Public key infrastructure / TLS
 * Difficulty: High
 * Implementation Language: java
 * Mentor: Guus and/or Dave at IgniteRealtime.org
 * Contact Details: guus.der.kinderen@igniterealtime.org (&lt;-- JID)

XEP-0280 Message Carbons support for Spark

 * Software Project: Spark
 * Software URL: https://igniterealtime.org/projects/spark
 * Software VCS URL: https://github.com/igniterealtime/Spark
 * Software Description: Spark is an Open Source, cross-platform, XMPP-based IM client optimized for businesses and organizations. It is developed in Java and is primarily based on the Smack library.
 * Brief explanation: The XEP-0280 extension of the XMPP protocol allows clients to forward send and received messages to other connected resources. Underlying Smack library (base of Spark) already supports this, as well as many XMPP servers. Spark should do that also.
 * Expected results: Spark is automatically forwarding sent/received messages to other connected resources of the same JID to insert them into history, when a server supports XEP-0280.
 * Difficulty: Easy
 * Implementation Language: java
 * Mentor: Oleg and/or Guus and/or Dave at IgniteRealtime.org
 * Contact Details: guus.der.kinderen@igniterealtime.org (&lt;-- JID)

XEP-0313 Message Archive Management support for Spark

 * Software Project: Spark
 * Software URL: https://igniterealtime.org/projects/spark
 * Software VCS URL: https://github.com/igniterealtime/Spark
 * Software Description: Spark is an Open Source, cross-platform, XMPP-based IM client optimized for businesses and organizations. It is developed in Java and is primarily based on the Smack library.
 * Brief explanation: The MAM extension of the XMPP protocol allows clients to store and retrieve history from the server (if it supports it). Underlying Smack library (base of Spark) already supports this, as well some XMPP servers. Spark should be able to do that also.
 * Expected results: Spark can be set to store/retrieve history from the server, instead of storing it locally when a server supports XEP-0313. This also involves updating Spark to Smack 4.2 or later.
 * Knowledge Prerequisite:
 * UI implementation in Java (minimal)
 * Difficulty: Medium
 * Implementation Language: java
 * Mentor: Oleg and/or Guus and/or Dave at IgniteRealtime.org
 * Contact Details: guus.der.kinderen@igniterealtime.org (&lt;-- JID)

 * Software Description: Swift is a cross-platform desktop XMPP client written in C++11 and Qt, with a focus on simplicity, usability and security.
 * Brief explanation: XEP-0301: In-Band Real Time Text is a protocol that greatly improves the chat user experiencE for people who experience disabilities. The project would consist of implementing the required components in Swiften, Swift/Controllers and the Swift Qt UI. If the project proceeds faster than planned, the remaining time could be used to improve general accessibility of the Qt UI, like making sure the whole application is keyboard navigable and UI elements expose useful information to screen readers.
 * Expected results:
 * Support for the required protocol parsers/serialisers for XEP-0301 in Swiften
 * Support in the Swift Qt UI to enable real-time text support, if a contact also supports the feature
 * The Swift Qt UI being completely keyboard navigable
 * The Swift Qt UI returning useful descriptions to screen-readers
 * Knowledge Prerequisite:

Design and Implement Multi-Account Support for Swift

 * Software Project: Swift
 * Software URL: https://swift.im/
 * Software VCS URL: https://github.com/swift/swift
 * Software Description: Swift is a cross-platform desktop XMPP client written in C++11 and Qt, with a focus on simplicity, usability and security.
 * Brief explanation: Currently Swift has very experimental and suboptimal support for multi account support. This project would be about replacing this with good multi-account support with great modern user experience. Initially there will be a short collective design and prototyping phase, followed by the implementation of the design.
 * Expected results:
 * A user will be able to setup multiple XMPP accounts in a single Swift instance which can be online at the same time
 * The user is able to easily identify the corresponding account for contacts shown in the UI
 * Redesign &quot;Contacts&quot; and &quot;Chats&quot; views accordingly to work with multiple accounts

Design a Chat View Free of QtWebKit/QtWebEngine

 * Software Project: Swift
 * Software URL: https://swift.im/
 * Software VCS URL: https://github.com/swift/swift
 * Software Description: Swift is a cross-platform desktop XMPP client written in C++11 and Qt, with a focus on simplicity, usability and security.
 * Brief explanation: Currently the Swift Qt UI has two chat views, a default QtWebKit based one and a simple Qt one for screen readers. This is due to QtWebKit failing to expose accessibility information to screen readers. The goal of this project would be trying to implement a single design using Qt5 and/or QML, that looks visually like the current design, but also provides the required accessibility information to screen readers.
 * Expected results:
 * A single chat view class that works visually and for screen readers, and does not require a full HTML/JS/… rendering stack like QtWebKit/QtWebEngine
 * The new chat view should support all the features currently supported in the QtWebKit based chat view
 * The new chat view should be relatively easy to extend for potential future features like in-line media and real-time media like voice/video chat
 * Knowledge Prerequisite:
 * Good C++ knowledge, ideally C++11
 * Some Qt5 knowledge
 * Difficulty: Medium
 * Implementation Language: C++
 * Mentor: Tobias and/or Edwin
 * Contact Details: Join the Swift room at [xmpp:swift@rooms.swift.im?join swift@rooms.swift.im] and feel free to ask.
