Yes. > 2. Does the specification solve the problem stated in the introduction > and requirements? Partly. It is sufficient to know that there are data that might need fetching, but not sufficient to do any form of ‘quick sync’ rather than full catchup, which would be possible if the push notifications included a pointer to the data needing fetching - e.g. a message ID that needs fetching from MAM and then decrypted by an OMEMO client to update the local notification with the decrypted content. The SHOULD on disabling on first iq error is likely to lead to issues in production if a service is ever restarted, leading to transient errors. It’d also benefit from disabling notifications for a particular device’s service when that device is connected. > > 3. Do you plan to implement this specification in your code? If not, > why not? Yes, probably with adjustment. > 4. Do you have any security concerns related to this specification? Although it suggests limiting the provided information, it provides no guidance how this would work in practice (see (2)). > 5. Is the specification accurate and clearly written? Mostly. There’s at least one issue of MAY but SHOULD. It’s also not entirely clear from reading whether Disable means Delete (it does). /K _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: [email protected] _______________________________________________
