Hey all, I wanted to take a quick moment to share some stuff with the general email audience that is interested in XMPP/Jabber in Twisted.
First off, some folks don't realize that there is a dedicated Twisted-Jabber email list for discussing XMPP/Jabber topics. This list is managed by Twisted's XMPP guru, Ralph Meijer. You can subscribe and check out the archives here: https://mailman.ik.nu/mailman/listinfo/twisted-jabber Secondly, we've been having some interesting discussions with Twisted sponsors lately about deep and abiding interests in Twisted XMPP: many sponsors want us to spend time creating docs and tutorials, improving support and adding new features. This interest was spearheaded by Jack Moffitt of Chesspark and given additional momentum by Dhris DiBona of Google. Furthermore, we've received vocal support for XMPP improvements from Hydra Labs, Lucasfilm, Security Metrics, and individual sponsors. Thirdly, today on #twisted, we had an intense and very productive discussion about XMPP in general, about it's current support in Twisted, and then a provisional roadmap for future developments. It was an excellent experience for all, and one that can be relived by everyone, thanks to IRC logs :-) A new ticket was created to address the next step that will to be taken, and that ticket is here: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/3407 In that ticket, I linked to the notes and IRC log of our chat: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/XMPPServerArchitecture http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/XMPPIRCTranscript20080903 There's lots to do and we're all quite excited about both the immediate and long-term benefits to be had by Twisted users, community members, and the project itself with regard to XMPP and messaging development efforts. Thanks, d _______________________________________________ Twisted-Jabber mailing list Twisted-Jabber@ik.nu https://mailman.ik.nu/mailman/listinfo/twisted-jabber
