As a member of council I've been responsible for reviewing all the XEP changes and proposals for the last year (that means I've read quite a lot of protocol). I've been involved, to varying degrees, with the development of several xeps, such as metacontacts, chat threads, PEP, and contribute to the standards list for discussion of xeps throughout their development.

I've been involved, to varying degrees, with the development of several xeps, such as metacontacts, chat threads, PEP, and contribute to the standards list for discussion of xeps throughout their development. My input is informed by my involvement leading one of the large popular client projects and being on the front line of user requests. | ||

I've been contributing code to the [http://psi-im.org Psi Client] for several years, and, subsequent to Justin Karnege's abdication in Autumn 2004, have been `project leader'. My long-term involvement in one of the longest-running clients, has given me insight into many of the issues surrounding XMPP/Jabber with the result that I believe I have things I can bring to the protocol, through council. | I've been contributing code to the [http://psi-im.org Psi Client] for several years, and, subsequent to Justin Karnege's abdication in Autumn 2004, have been `project leader'.

I'm also now involved with Nathan Fritz's Sleek project, writing code for the sleekBot which sits in several MUCs being useful. My aim with this project is to provide enough of an emulation layer for Eggdrop bots that we can 'natively' run some of the fun irc scripts (trivia scripts, hangman, 'personality' scripts etc) people enjoy; so far I've got enough to run a healthy number of scripts to some degree and it should be fun to see this develop. | |||
