* '''Brief explanation:''' Since 2009 there exists a patchset which adds serverless messaging (link-local) support to Smack. Unfortunately the patch design is no longer compatible with recent Smack versions and thorough examination has shown that it needs major rewriting (basically from scratch) in order to fulfill the requirements for inclusion in the 'master' branch. The 2009er patch should not be used as a starting point for the new code. But analyzing its weaknesses and problems will sure help providing a better end-result. Furthermore Guardian Project's ChatSecure uses an old version of aSmack with the serverless messaging patch. They need support for XEP-174 in order to switch from the old aSmack version they currently use to an newer Smack version. This also means that the code has to be Android compatible. | * '''Brief explanation:''' Since 2009 there exists a patchset which adds serverless messaging (link-local) support to Smack.
