This page provides an up-to-date snapshot of activity related to XMPP Extension Protocols, as maintained by the XEP Editor for use by the XMPP Council. See also the vote tallies and the XSF Roadmap. This page is structured in "maturity order", with Final and Draft XEPs listed first, then Experimental XEPs, then proposals that have not yet been accepted as XEPs.

These are Draft and Final XEPs that are undergoing revision. All such changes must be approved by the XMPP Council before they are officially published.

Calls for Experience

A Call for Experience is issued when the Council is considering advancement of a XEP from Draft to Final.

There are no Calls for Experience at this time.

Proposed XEPs with Voting in Progress

Voting is in progress on XEP-0227: Portable Import/Export Format for XMPP-IM Servers. A vote is still needed from Kevin Smith.

Current and Recent Last Calls

A Last Call is issued when the Council is considering advancement of a XEP from Experiment to Draft (or, for informational specifications, Active).

There are no current Last Calls.

A Last Call on XEP-0226: Message Stanza Profiles ended on November 13. Modifications to follow.

To Be Deferred

Experimental XEPs are automatically deferred after 12 months of inactivity (i.e., no new published version).

The following XEPs are set to be automatically deferred within the next 30 days.

Inbox

The Inbox contains proposals that have not yet been accepted by the XMPP Council for publication as official XEPs.

There are currently no items in the inbox.

Other Items

  • XEP-0193 / multiple resources per stream: several people have expressed an interest in bring back this feature (which was removed from rfc3920bis). Is the Council receptive to taking this on?
  • XEP-0232 / software information: this was recently deferred for inactivity but there is still interest in moving this forward. Can the Council review it again and more clearly specify its objections?
  • Consistency of review periods -- see http://mail.jabber.org/pipermail/council/2010-March/002783.html
  • Roundups: an overview of the XEPs activity needs to be (ir)regularly published on blog.xmpp.org.

Next Council Meeting

The next meeting of the XMPP Council will be held on 2010-03-15 at 19:00 UTC in the council@muc.xmpp.org room. Meetings are open to the public, although only elected Council members have a vote. The chatroom log is at http://xmpp.org:5290/muc_log/muc.xmpp.org/council/
