Matthew Miller for Council 2005

History
I've been involved with the Jabber community since late 2000. I've been a member of the JSF since it's inception in 2001, and have served on the 2003 and 2004 JSF Councils.

Contributions
My primary contribution has been JSO, the low-level Jabber library for Java. I have also been an author or co-author for numerous JEPs, most recently:


 * Authenticating HTTP Requests via XMPP
 * Data Forms Validation
 * Publishing SI Requests
 * Data Forms Layout

2005 Priorities
My primary goals for 2005 are:
 * 1) To help develop and promote extensible profile information protocol(s) to replace vcard-temp.
 * 2) To help develop and promote usable protocol(s) for end-to-end encryption.
 * 3) To help develop and promote more practical uses of pub-sub

Why I'm Running Again
It's important that the Council stay productive, yet mindful. That means publishing the right JEPs and trying to push them through the JSF standards process as quickly -- yet deliberately -- as we can. I'm running for Council again because I think I've done a good job in developing, evaluating, and promoting useful JEPs during the 2004-2005 Council, and I can do that again for 2005-2006.
