The XMPP Extensions Editor has received a proposal for a new XEP.

Title: Mediated Information eXchange (MIX)

Abstract: This document defines Mediated Information eXchange (MIX), an XMPP 
protocol extension for the exchange of information among multiple participants 
through a mediating service. The protocol can be used to model group 
communication applications such as chatrooms, although with greater flexibility 
and extensibility than existing groupchat technologies such as Multi-User Chat 
(MUC). Although MIX supports standard groupchat features such as discussion 
topics and invitations, and also defines a strong access control model similar 
to that of MUC, it enables users to participate without sharing presence, 
allows communication of any structured data (not only textual messages), reuses 
Publish-Subscribe so that users can receive only the information formats in 
which they are interested, and reuses Message Archive Management (MAM) to 
provide more robust storage and archiving.

The XMPP Council will decide in the next two weeks whether to accept this 
proposal as an official XEP.
