Hi Paul,

don't think we can specify much (perhaps only something for XMPP?)

Even something only for XMPP would be better than nothing.
Of course, a large file possibility, even if just for XMPP would certainly
be a good beginning step.

My wish was that at least some thoughts went into secure file transfer
before and during the next meeting, rather than thinking afterwards
ooohhh gosh we totally forgot to talk about the possibilities of secure
file transfer..

Best regards, Earl

Hopefully secure end-to-end file transfer will be considered and

The RFC will just codify the current OTR specification, which does have
a property for generating a (temporary) symmetric key to use for
encryption of bulk data, such as audio/video and files.

The implementation of that is client and IM protocol specific though. I
don't think we can specify much (perhaps only something for XMPP?)
