There's an ongoing discussion about https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mile-xmpp-grid/ - a document currently about to be voted on by the IESG - which includes a slightly different set of SASL mechanisms as Mandatory To Implement.
Our current MTI is from RFC 6120, and can be summarized as: Servers MUST implement EXTERNAL, SCRAM-SHA1 and SCRAM-SHA1-PLUS. Client MUST implement SCRAM-SHA1 and SCRAM-SHA1-PLUS, and SHOULD implement EXTERNAL and PLAIN (the latter so servers can support some pre-existing authentication systems). XMPP-Grid (that draft) essentially says both servers and clients MUST implement EXTERNAL, SCRAM-SHA1, SCRAM-SHA1-PLUS, SCRAM-SHA-256, and SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS. Is there any interest in updating our MTI? I would imagine any work would need to be done in the IETF, in conformance with their "Note Well". Dave.
