From XMPP Wiki
Roll call.

Remko Tronçon sends his apologies.
Quorum achieved.
Agenda Bashing.
None.
What are this council's priorities for http://xmpp.org/xsf/roadmap.shtml ?
It is decided that items 1 and 2 on the roadmap are now responsibilities of the IETF Working Group, but it is still the Council's responsibility to advise. Kevin Smith suggest combining this to just be item #1.
The Council agrees to include "MUC Cleanup" as item #2.
The roadmap now stands as:
1. Advise the IETF WG on RFC bis revisions and e2e.
2. Clean up MUC (XEP-0045).
3. Improve XMPP file transfer by transitioning to Jingle (see XEP-0234) with SOCKS5 bytestreams (XEP-0260) and in-band bytestreams (XEP-0261).
4. Improve the resistance of XMPP to spam, phishing, abuse, and denial of service attacks, with a current focus on XEP-0268: Incident Reporting.
ProtoXEP Linked Process Protocol - http://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/lop.html Accept as a XEP?
A consensus is reached to wait for the next revision of the spec, which is apparently in the works, before voting.
The following XEPs are soon to expire:
- XEP-0252: BOSH Script Syntax
- XEP-0226: Message Stanza Profiles
- XEP-0253: PubSub Chaining
- XEP-0254: PubSub Queueing
XEP-0253 and 0254 are both in active interest on the jdev list. Kevin Smith suggests the Council votes next week on issuing a Last Call for XEP-0226.
Date/Time of next meeting.
Monday the 26th of October 2009 at 19:00UTC.
Issue a Last Call on http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0227.html?
There is some concern about requiring separate files and the lack of last activity. All three councilmen vote in favor of issuing a last call.
Any other business.
None.
Kevin Smith bangs the gavel.
