Matthew Miller for Council 2012

History

I've been involved with the Jabber community since late 2000. I've been a member of the XSF since it's inception in 2001, and have previously served on the 2003, 2004, 2005, 2010, and 2011 XSF Councils.

Contributions

My primary contribution has been as a senior engineer and architect of XMPP client libraries for Cisco, Inc. and a Professional Services Engineer for Jabber, Inc.. I also developed JSO (a low-level XMPP library for Java).

I have also been an author or co-author for numerous XEPs:

• Ad-Hoc Commands
• SOCKS5 Bytestreams
• Stream Initiation
• SI File Transfer
• Authenticating HTTP Requests via XMPP
• Data Forms Validation
• Publishing SI Requests
• Data Forms Layout
• Domain-Based Service Names in XMPP SASL Negotation
• Message Carbons

I am also working on couple of things in the IETF:

• End-to-End Object Encryption for XMPP
• DNSSEC and DANE for XMPP Domain Name Associations
• POSH for XMPP Domain Name Associations

Priorities

My primary goals for 2012 are:

1. To help develop and promote usable protocol(s) for end-to-end encryption.
2. To help develop and promote usable protocol(s) for secure delegation and federation.
3. To apply my years of experience on messaging technologies to the current generation of XSF work
