There are some articles and thoughts on the European Digital Markets Act:

The site "Chat standard (XMPP)" with lots of information is available in English now at freie-messenger.de

Axel from eversten.net published an XMPP Push Notification Test for iOS covering latest Monal, Siskin IM and Snikket versions on different server implementations. A good 15 minutes read for both iOS users and their multi-platforms contacts alike.

JMP now delivers transcribed voicemail in many common languages, not just English. The voicemail system has also been updated to source names from more modern XMPP profiles including vCard4 and PEP Nickname.

MoongoseIM 5.1 was released as announced, as announced in the June 2022 Newsletter. In addition to the previously mentioned features, this brought improvements to the Inbox feature. You can now read more about the new Inbox settings and scalability improvements in this article.

De plus, Mellium a déménagé sur Codeberg ! Les dépôts se trouvent désormais à l'adresse codeberg.org/mellium et le message d'annonce se trouve sur Lemmy ou Open Collective.

Conversations 2.10.8, un client Jabber/XMPP pour Android, a été publié.

Les versions Gajim 1.4.6 et 1.4.7 ont été publiées. Ces versions apportent des améliorations de performance, de meilleurs aperçus de fichiers, et corrigent quelques bogues avec l'icône d'état et les notifications. La détection des codes courts Emoji a également été améliorée.

Monal version 5.2.0 a été publié par l'équipe de développement de Monal ! Les points forts de cette version sont les nouveaux serveurs push (privés) en Europe et aux États-Unis, l'affichage des fichiers transférés dans le répertoire des documents de l'application, et plusieurs corrections concernant le cryptage (OMEMO), la lecture des codes QR et l'embarquement. En outre, Monal propose également une [nouvelle page web] (https://www.monal-im.org/).

Psi+ 11.5.1634 (2022-07-11) a été publié.

Servers

eturnal 1.10.0, a STUN / TURN standalone server, has been released.

Openfire version 4.7.2 is out, stabilizing and fixing bugs, notably improving BOSH connections under load.

Push Notification Openfire plugin 0.9.1 was released with only one, but an important fix.

Version 1.8.3 of the Openfire REST API plugin is out too, extending MUC search and updating dependencies.

Serveurs

eturnal 1.10.0, un serveur autonome STUN / TURN, a été publié.

La version Openfire 4.7.2 est sortie, stabilisant et corrigeant des bogues, améliorant notamment les connexions BOSH sous charge.

Le plugin 0.9.1 d'Openfire pour les notifications push (https://discourse.igniterealtime.org/t/push-notification-openfire-plugin-0-9-1-released/91832) a été publié avec un seul correctif, mais un correctif important.

La version 1.8.3 du plugin Openfire REST API est également sortie, étendant la recherche MUC et mettant à jour les dépendances.

Libraries

libstrophe 0.12.1, a lightweight XMPP client library written in C, has been released.

nbxmpp 3.1.1 has been released. This version comes with performance improvements and bug fixes.

The XMPP webhooks component has been updated to support more webhooks out of the box. Effectively, this component replaces proprietary tools such as Slack with a better option based on open code and open protocols, fully under control of its users. It now has:

  • Richer messages for GitLab events (labels, time spent, etc.)
  • Support for Stripe events, including optional (but recommended) signature verification.
  • Support for SMS to URL Forwarder, a simple but effective SMS forwarder application for Android. This is handy for those with a second or third phone and it's also used to showcase some of the new features.
  • Integration with Nextcloud via Flow Webhooks.

Paul Schaub wrote a short blog post about their recent progress towards adding Web-of-Trust support to PGPainless. With release 1.3.2, the OpenPGP library got support for creating signatures on third-party certificates, which will help users to build their trust network.

xmpp-dns, a tool to check XMPP SRV records, was released in version 0.3.0, bringing support for DNS over TLS (DoT) and for setting a custom DNS server.

Bibliothèques

libstrophe 0.12.1, une bibliothèque client XMPP légère écrite en C, a été publiée.

nbxmpp 3.1.1 a été publié. Cette version apporte des améliorations de performances et des corrections de bogues.

Le [composant XMPP webhooks] (https://gitlab.com/navlost.eu/xmpp/components/webhooks) a été mis à jour pour prendre en charge davantage de webhooks. Effectivement, ce composant remplace les outils propriétaires tels que Slack par une meilleure option basée sur un code ouvert et des protocoles ouverts, entièrement sous le contrôle de ses utilisateurs. Il dispose désormais de :

  • Des messages plus riches pour les événements GitLab (étiquettes, temps passé, etc.).
  • Prise en charge des événements Stripe, y compris la vérification facultative (mais recommandée) de la signature.
  • Prise en charge de SMS to URL Forwarder, une application simple mais efficace de transfert de SMS pour Android. C'est pratique pour ceux qui ont un deuxième ou un troisième téléphone et c'est également utilisé pour présenter certaines des nouvelles fonctionnalités.
  • Intégration avec Nextcloud via Flow Webhooks.

Paul Schaub a rédigé un court article de blog sur les progrès récents réalisés en vue d'ajouter la prise en charge du Web-of-Trust à PGPainless. Avec la version 1.3.2, la bibliothèque OpenPGP prend en charge la création de signatures sur des certificats tiers, ce qui aidera les utilisateurs à construire leur réseau de confiance.

xmpp-dns, un outil permettant de vérifier les enregistrements SRV de XMPP, a été publié dans la version 0.3.0, apportant la prise en charge de DNS sur TLS (DoT) et de la configuration d'un serveur DNS personnalisé.

Extensions and specifications

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).

xmpp.org features a page about XMPP RFCs as well.

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.

  • Bookmark Pinning
    • This document defines an XMPP protocol extension to allow users to pin PEP Native Bookmarks.
  • Pubsub Attachments
    • This specification provides a way to attach elements to a pubsub item.

New

  • WebSocket S2S
    • This specification defines a procedure to make s2s XMPP connections over WebSocket.
  • XMPP over QUIC
    • This specification defines a procedure to make both c2s and s2s XMPP connections over the QUIC protocol instead of TCP+TLS.

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 updated 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 help improving the XEP before returning it to the Council for advancement to Stable.

  • External Service Discovery
    • This document specifies an XMPP protocol extension for discovering services external to the XMPP network.

Stable

  • No XEPs advanced to Stable this month.

Deprecated

  • No XEP deprecated this month.

Call for Experience

A Call For Experience - like a Last Call, is an explicit call for comments, but in this case it's mostly directed at people who've implemented, and ideally deployed, the specification. The Council then votes to move it to Final.

  • No Call for Experience this month.
