== High-Level Priorities ==

The high-level priorities for the XMPP community include the following (see also the [http://xmpp.org/xsf/roadmap.shtml XSF Roadmap])...
The XSF is an umbrella organisation for various XMPP-related projects. As such, there's two tiers involved - the XSF itself, which is responsible for cat-herding mentors to submit ideas, choosing students etc., and the software projects themselves that then mentor students. Anyone interested in participating in GSoC as an XSF student can join the [[#Join_the_group_chat.21|gsoc@muc.xmpp.org chat room]], where various mentors will be available to answer questions and generally help. Although each idea in the lists of project ideas mentions a possible mentor, this MUC is the best place to start.


=== Jingle File Transfer ===
As there are several disparate projects here, there's variety across several codebases in different languages and with significantly different aims, so take a look through all the ideas - there should be something for everyone here :)


We are working to migrate from the old file transfer method [http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0096.html XEP-0096] to a more robust method based on [http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0166.html Jingle]. The new Jingle-based method has been implemented in Pidgin but not yet in other clients. We'd love to see more implementations and get more deployment experience with this method so that we can correct and advance the relevant specs, which are:

The XSF has defined two specifications that make XMPP communication more reliable: [http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0198.html Stream Management] and [http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0184.html Message Receipts]. We won't know if these technologies solve the problem until we have more implementation and deployment experience, so we need to get busy coding.

Google Summer of Code 2020

Disclaimer: It is not yet finally decided whether or not the XMPP Standards Foundation will participate in this years GSoC.

The XSF is an umbrella organisation for various XMPP-related projects. As such, there's two tiers involved - the XSF itself, which is responsible for cat-herding mentors to submit ideas, choosing students etc., and the software projects themselves that then mentor students. Anyone interested in participating in GSoC as an XSF student can join the gsoc@muc.xmpp.org chat room, where various mentors will be available to answer questions and generally help. Although each idea in the lists of project ideas mentions a possible mentor, this MUC is the best place to start.

As there are several disparate projects here, there's variety across several codebases in different languages and with significantly different aims, so take a look through all the ideas - there should be something for everyone here :)
