Background
I am mainly in the realm of client development and a relative newcomer to the XMPP world. I started actually using XMPP in about 2010, and soon began to develop "bots" which perform several tasks based on SleekXMPP. The versatility of XMPP I learnt about in that process hooked me for the protocol.

In 2014 I decided to start developing an XMPP library (aioxmpp) and client (mlxc, very incomplete) on my own. The client is targeted for the Desktop user while the library has no specific target audience and is intended to be usable for about every client scenario. As a newcomer, I am very interested in the quality of the XEP specifications, because this is essentially the only resource developers have when writing code for XMPP entities.

Motivation
My goal with an XSF membership would be to increase the quality of the existing documentation in form of XEPs as well as contributing in the development process of new standards and new revisions of existing ones.
