Version 0.4.0 of XEP-0386 (Bind 2) has been released. Abstract: This specification provides a single-request replacement for several activities an XMPP client needs to do at startup.
Changelog: Various changes, made in parallel with working client and server implementation experience, and SASL2 updates. More tightly define the integration with XEP-0388 and several session feature XEPs: XEP-0198, XEP-0280, XEP-0352. Replace the custom latest-id element with the new metadata element from XEP-0313, which also provides richer information. Drop unread tracking, as this is a deep topic not directly related to resource binding. Instead the details of integration with other extensions have been better defined and demonstrated, to allow such functionality when it is fully defined and exists. Adjust proposed namespace on aesthetic grounds and consistency with SASL2's approach. As this protocol may become part of the new preferred connection flow for a long time to come, it makes no sense to include the redundant and potentially confusing '2' when there is no conflict without it. Similarly, the '.0' has been dropped from the XEP's title, as it isn't really a version number. Allow the client some influence over the resulting resource identifier, and define a standard format for these combined identifiers. Specify that servers should terminate old sessions from a client when it binds a new resource.
