I'm Waqas Hussain, and I'm reapplying for XSF membership.

For details on me, and the how and why of my getting involved, see my previous application.

Projects this year

  • I've mainly been involved in the Prosody project
  • I've implemented XMPP-IM, as well as dozens of XEPs in Prosody, including MUC, PEP, vCards, XML-RPC, service discovery, etc.
  • IdentiChat, which was never formally released, but sees a fair number of users
  • I've been working on a number of other interesting projects, but they are not public yet

XEPs

Community

  • I can usually be found hanging around in the JDev and Jabber rooms, frequently rendering assistance to new users
  • I'm also relatively active on the various XMPP mailing lists, arguing about this and that

Future plans

  • I'll continue to work on Prosody; we have some pretty interesting plans for upcoming versions
  • A new and improved version of IdentiChat is in the works
  • I'm interested in contributing to existing XEPs, as well as in writing and implementing some new ones
  • I've been spending time on some testing and performance tools
  • BOSH is fun to play with, and I've been working on several web applications
  • If I tried listing all my plans, I'll miss the application submission deadline

Same as last year:

  • Ping me over jabber: waqas at jaim dot at
  • Send me an email: waqas20 at gmail dot com
  • Or you can just poke me in the JDev, Jabber, or Prosody rooms
