'''Publishing Tools''' | |||
XSF member [http://ayena.de Tobias Markmann] has been doing great work on our publishing tools. In addition to improving the [http://xmpp.org/extensions/ primary XEP page] by enabling you to filter based on XEP type and status, he has developed a way for us to generate our specs in PDF format, with syntax highlighting for example stanzas. You can now download each one of them, read them while offline, and distribute them to your customers, partners, and best friends. You can also get the full pack as a tarball: [http://xmpp.org/extensions/xepbundle.tar.bz2 xepbundle.tar.bz2]. | |||

[http://ayena.de Tobias] and Waqas Hussain have also been working on a [http://xmpp.org/extensions/diff tool to compare XEP versions] that recently went live. Thank you very much Tobias and Waqas! | [http://ayena.de Tobias] and Waqas Hussain have also been working on a [http://xmpp.org/extensions/diff tool to compare XEP versions] that recently went live.

''Review | '''Technical Review Team at work: Multi-User Chat''' | ||
The | The newly-created [http://xmpp.org/xsf/teams/techreview/ Technical Review Team] is currently working to complete a thorough review of the venerable [http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html XEP-0045: Multi-User Chat]. The team is also taking on more responsibility for maintenance of existing specs and publishing of new ones. We'll have a full report on those efforts in the near future. | ||
'''XEP Submissions''' | |||
Because use of XMPP continues to grow, the XSF receives new XEP proposals on a regular basis. The latest submissions are: | |||

* [http://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/sic.html Server IP Check] | |||

'''Last Call''' | |||
''' | As XEPs move through the XSF's standards process, they are proposed for advance from 'Experimental' to 'Draft' (or 'Active' for informational specs). The following XEPs are in last call before moving ahead: | ||
* [http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0226.html XEP-0226: Message Stanza Profiles] | |||

'''Updated Specs''' | |||
' | The XSF's specifications are living documents that are updated regularly as we receive bug reports, feature requests, implementation feedback, and discussion in our chatrooms and email lists. Since the last roundup updates have been committed to the following XEPs: | ||

'''Deferred Specs''' | |||
'''Deferred | At any one time, many XEPs are under consideration in the 'Experimental' state. If any given XEP is not updated in 12 months, its status is changed to 'Deferred'. There is no shame in being deferred, since that happens quite often. Since our last roundup the following XEPs have been deferred: | ||
