I think Informational is best. It isn’t really part of the XSF procedures, so Procedural seems off. It’s also not part of the standards that we are producing for the sake of XMPP interoperability, so Standards Track seems like it would be confusing. That leaves Informational, and I can’t see any argument against that particularly. (Passing no judgement on whether it *should* be a XEP, merely that if it is to be a XEP I think Informational makes sense) /K _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: [email protected] _______________________________________________
