XMPP Summit 13

The XMPP Standards Foundation (XSF) will hold its 13th XMPP Summit on Thursday, January 31 and Friday, February 1 in Brussels, Belgium. This is the Thursday and Friday before FOSDEM 2013.

The Summit will be held at Cisco Systems Belgium's offices in Diegem (just outside Brussels and accessible via local train from the city center).

If you would like to participate in the Summit, please join the summit@xmpp.org discussion list and post with your participation request. Space is not infinite, but we will try to accommodate all requests.

For activities on Saturday and Sunday, see the FOSDEM 2013 page.

General Discussion Topics

The XMPP Summit consists of intensive discussions among core XMPP developers to solve pressing problems in the XMPP protocol stack and general community. Although all are welcome, the XMPP Summit is not intended for people who are just interested in learning about XMPP (see the Saturday schedule at FOSDEM), but instead for active technical contributors in the XMPP community.

Likely technical topics include:

  • XMPP and the Web (including WebRTC)
  • Message Archive Management (XEP-0313)
  • Message carbons (XEP-0280)
  • Distributed chatrooms
  • Internationalization (RFC6122bis)

If you have ideas for technical topics, please post them to the summit@xmpp.org discussion list.
