    I don't know if you noticed this already, if not it would be usefull to reach out to systemli.org (a tech collective popular among the activist szene) They started to host matrix. For their launch they wrote a blog post, that doesn't sound well for xmpp. Just as an example: "[XMPP] also does not offer a usable option for encrypting group communication (E2EE)." Full blogpost here: https://www.systemli.org/en/2021/01/25/new-service-modern-messenger-matrix/

    Maybe they mean macOS, which is true, or iOS which is not

    Licaon_Kter: Beagle does not provide OMEMO ?

  6. Licaon_Kter

    neox: not yet in groups

  7. neox

    Licaon_Kter: ok thanks. Didn't know

  8. Licaon_Kter

    They should develop in parallel but I guess the anon donor wanted Siskin (first?)

    MattJ, when is the NDA expiring? ^^^

  10. MattJ

    There is no NDA :)

    Siskin is part of Snikket's current roadmap, Beagle is not

    I believe the OMEMO code went into the library that Beagle and Siskin share, but I assume Beagle will need some update to actually use it
