Hi all, Editor hat on.
This announcement may seem a bit unorthodox, however, the past days, weeks, months and years have seen a lot of criticism of XMPP. Often times, people claim that there is a single specific feature missing which other messengers have and which is absolutely required, otherwise, XMPP will be doomed. Obviously, we cannot run after each feature such claimed. We need to be smarter and find the underlying technologies which enable such features. For this, we need to look no further than the Web. The web has been a great success. Look at all the things on the web. Matrix uses web technology and many other popular messengers, proprietary or libre, closed or federated, are built upon technologies enabled by the web stack, such as WebSockets, WebRTC, WebASM, WebGL, or WebRCE. Since XMPP is clearly still stuck in the 90ies, we need to start our catch up with a 90ies web technology which could not have been more influential. With this introductory text, the following XEP announcement should make most sense to everyone: Version 1.0 of XEP-0464 (Cookies) has been released. Abstract: This document defines an XMPP protocol extension for setting and sending cookies. Changelog: Publish initial version via fast track (XEP Editor: jsc). (tjb) URL: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0464.html Note: The information in the XEP list at https://xmpp.org/extensions/ is updated by a separate automated process and may be stale at the time this email is sent. The XEP documents linked herein are up-to- date. kind regards, Jonas Schäfer XMPP Extensions Editor
