Hello Nico,

Thanks for your answer!

Links of XEPs are here to confirm that "tls-exporter" is needed and already 
used.

XEPs are already supported by a lot of projects/softwares/companies in 
production, for example on GitHub, we can see:
- 
https://github.com/search?q=XEP-0480+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxeps+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxep-attic+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxmpp.org&type=code
- 
https://github.com/search?q=XEP-0388+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxeps+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxep-attic+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxmpp.org&type=code
- 
https://github.com/search?q=XEP-0440+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxeps+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxep-attic+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxmpp.org&type=code
- 
https://github.com/search?q=XEP-0474+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxeps+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxep-attic+-repo%3Axsf%2Fxmpp.org&type=code

At the same time, about these XEPs, it is the base of the 
"draft-melnikov-sasl2" done by Alexey Melnikov (author of several RFCs), that 
you know of course:
- https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-melnikov-sasl2
- https://datatracker.ietf.org/person/Alexey%20Melnikov

Several people would like to deprecate "tls-server-end-point" (RFC 5929) like 
Simon Josefsson (author of several RFCs), that you know of course, because RFC 
9266 exists since July 2022:
- https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/kitten/zpesKSHsiuy1RvhPlbSUGajLbKQ/
- https://datatracker.ietf.org/person/Simon%20Josefsson

For example, he is the GNU SASL maintainer and he does not want to add 
tls-server-end-point support:
- https://gitlab.com/gsasl/gsasl/-/issues/13

Other talks about tls-server-end-point:
- 
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/kitten/?q=tls-server-end-point&gbt=1&index=
- 
https://mail.jabber.org/hyperkitty/search?count=200&q=tls-server-end-point&page=1&mlist=standards%40xmpp.org&sort=date-asc
- 
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/tls/?q=tls-server-end-point&gbt=1&index=

So it is really important to support "tls-exporter".

Regards,

Neustradamus

Why are XEPs relevant to PG?
