An XMPP server doesn't have to be on the internet, it can very well be running on your LAN so that your desktop computer and your smartphone synchronize their keys. You also have to keep in mind that the secret key is always encrypted, even though that may not be enough for you Moreover this XEP, like other XEPs, only specifies a way to do it with XMPP, so that implementations can talk to each other. If you don't want to use it, you don't have to. -- Matthieu RAKOTOJAONA _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: standards-unsubscr...@xmpp.org _______________________________________________
