## Extensions and specifications
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The XMPP Standards Foundation develops extensions to XMPP in its [XEP series](https://xmpp.org/extensions/) in addition to [XMPP RFCs](https://xmpp.org/rfcs/).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Developers and other standards experts from around the world collaborate on these extensions, developing new specifications for emerging practices, and refining existing ways of doing things. Proposed by anybody, the particularly successful ones end up as Final or Active - depending on their type - while others are carefully archived as Deferred. This life cycle is described in [XEP-0001](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0001.html), which contains the formal and canonical definitions for the types, states, and processes. [Read more about the standards process](https://xmpp.org/about/standards-process.html). Communication around Standards and Extensions happens in the [Standards Mailing List](https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards) ([online archive](https://mail.jabber.org/pipermail/standards/)).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Proposed
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The XEP development process starts by writing up an idea and submitting it to the XMPP Editor. Within two weeks, the Council decides whether to accept this proposal as an Experimental XEP.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- No XEPs proposed this month.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### New
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- No new XEPs this month.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Deferred
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If an experimental XEP is not updated for more than twelve months, it will be moved off Experimental to Deferred. If there is another update, it will put the XEP back onto Experimental.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- No XEPs deferred this month.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Updated
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- No XEPs update this month.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Last Call
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Last calls are issued once everyone seems satisfied with the current XEP status. After the Council decides whether the XEP seems ready, the XMPP Editor issues a Last Call for comments. The feedback gathered during the Last Call can help improve the XEP before returning it to the Council for advancement to Stable.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- No Last Call this month.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Stable
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- No XEP moved to stable this month.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Deprecated
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- No XEP deprecated this month.

This XMPP Newsletter is produced collaboratively by the XMPP community. Each month's newsletter issue is drafted in this [simple pad](https://pad.nixnet.services/oHnY_ZvLT8SoFyCqIC2ung). At the end of each month, the pad's content is merged into the [XSF Github repository](https://github.com/xsf/xmpp.org/milestone/3). We are always happy to welcome contributors. Do not hesitate to join the discussion in our [Comm-Team group chat (MUC)](xmpp:commteam@muc.xmpp.org?join) and thereby help us sustain this as a community effort. You have a project and want to spread the news? Please consider sharing your news or events here, and promote it to a large audience.
