Software

In my day job I am a bike mechanic who occasionally does freelance software development, though unfortunately I don't get to work on XMPP. However, I have contributed heavily to Conversations and I am the author of the Mellium suite of XMPP libraries and clients written in Go.

My XEPs

I am currently an author or co-author on the following XEPs:

• XEP-0386: Mobile Considerations on LTE Networks
• XEP-0364: Current Off-the-Record Messaging Usage
• XEP-0366: Entity Versioning
• XEP-0367: Message Attaching
• XEP-0375: XMPP Compliance Suites 2016
• XEP-0377: Spam Reporting
• XEP-0378: OTR Discovery
• XEP-0383: Burner JIDs
• XEP-0387: XMPP Compliance Suites 2018
• XEP-0389: Extensible In-Band Registration
• XEP-0393: Message Styling
• XEP-0438: Best practices for password hashing and storage

And a few tangentially XMPP related I-Ds:

• Channel Bindings for SCRAM over TLS 1.3
• Best practices for password hashing and storage (This would replace XEP-0438 if it is accepted as an RFC)
• Preparation, Enforcement, and Comparison of Internationalized Strings (PRECIS) Test Vectors
