Clients and applications

Servers

  • The ejabberd mod_s3_upload module gained support for the use of a separate download host. This allows clients to download media content from a statically hosted S3 bucket. Initially, this feature was proposed to allow ejabberd to integrate with Garage, an open-source distributed object storage service tailored for self-hosting.

Libraries & Tools

Extensions and specifications

The XMPP Standards Foundation develops extensions to XMPP in its XEP series in addition to XMPP 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, which contains the formal and canonical definitions for the types, states, and processes. Read more about the standards process. Communication around Standards and Extensions happens in the Standards Mailing List (online archive).

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.

  • Reporting Account Affiliations
    • This specification documents a way for an XMPP server to report to other entities the relationship it has with a user on its domain.

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

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.
