Executive Summary
XMPP Extension Protocols
The XMPP Council worked to complete several primary tasks in its eighth session (2008-2009). A full accounting of work on Draft and Final XEPs for this session is located at http://xmpp.org/council/tallies_08.shtml
Jingle
In June 2009 the Council was finally able to advance the core Jingle specifications from Experimental to Draft:
- XEP-0166: Jingle
- XEP-0167: Jingle RTP Sessions
- XEP-0176: Jingle ICE-UDP Transport Method
- XEP-0177: Jingle Raw UDP Transport Method
This effort represents a major milestone in the use of XMPP for multimedia session negotiation as originally deployed in the Google Talk application.
Draft to Final
The eighth Council made a concerted effort to advance more XEPs from Draft to Final in the XSF's standards process. The specifications so advanced were:
- XEP-0012: Last Activity
- XEP-0085: Chat State Notifications
- XEP-0174: Serverless Messaging (originally developed by Apple for their Bonjour technology)
- XEP-0138: Stream Compression
- XEP-0199: XMPP Ping
- XEP-0202: Entity Time
- XEP-0203: Delayed Delivery
It is probably that additional XEPs will be advanced from Draft to Final during the ninth Council session (2009-2010).
IETF Activities
The XSF has spearheaded creation of a renewed XMPP Working Group at the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). The primary focus for the WG is to complete revisions to RFC 3920 and RFC 3921, which comprise the core definition of XMPP.
