XMPP Council - 2012-03-14

Oh good, we're going to have one of *those* meetings.

heh

Right, it's time.

1) Roll call.

I don't see Tobias online.

But he sent apologies, so that's fine.

I also don't see a Matt Miller, who also sent apologies.

Ahoy

I do see a me.

ralphm?

He was here five minutes ago!

heh

Give him until :05

We don't have much on the agenda

Right.

I already waved

2) Message Forwarding

Last call's expired, I think, so we should vote on Draftness.

Hmm, I read the feedback but it is out of my infamous short-term memory

The only feedback we had in the LC thread was Zash.

Noone but me replied?

Didn't MM?

Not in the LC.

There were previous threads (linked by Zash).

Hmm, maybe he commented here when we voted on the LC

http://logs.xmpp.org/council/120215/#16:20:39

Ok, so we should poke him for his comments

And maybe we should provide some sort of guidance for uses of 197.

*297

MattJ: Shall I leave that to you? :)

Ok :)

Excellent.

Presumably we then LC it again.

ralphm: You happy with this plan?

that sounds reasonable

3) http://xmpp.org/extensions/diff/api/xep/0172/diff/1.0/vs/1.1rc1

Although I'm not sure if another LC is needed

I'm +1

ralphm: I don't think it hurts, and we want to solicit opinion.

+1

+1

4) Date of next meeting. 4pm next Wednesday, UK time?

I see what you did there :)

wfm

UK time?

is that the same as this time UTC?

stpeter: you claimed it was difficult because of DST, so I was being explicit.

Yes, it is for next week.

Kev: wasn't difficult for me at all, but I'm more flexible than Matt is

Just always use UTC.

yep

1600 GMT it is :)

I think the difficulty was in figuring out local time, not the actual time of day.

Actually.

Is it this Sunday they changed? :)

1600 UTC for all others

No, the following.

So yes, 1600.

5) AOB?

US changed a few days ago, we change last weekend of March

a new verson of XEP-0301 will find its way to me soon, according to the author

Righty.

Just a note that I have located the MAM XML, have reviewed it and know the changes I want to make, and have it open in an editor to make them

We don't need to do anything with that, I think.

I need to address XEP-0047 call for experience feedback

probably there are other tasks I need to complete, too

So no AOB, then?

not really

Excellent.

Thanks all.

yay

Thanks

brb

Is there a board meeting today?

Oh, right - I submitted the XSF's application to GSoC btw.

We could do with more ideas, still.

stpeter: I think that byte-for-byte comparison of resourcepart is problematic.

stpeter: e.g. in python, I get unicode objects from my parser

i.e. the attribute values (where they usually appear) are already decoded from their UTF-8 representation

MattJ, Yes, there's a board meeting just starting.

ralphm: feel free to post to the list about that -- I tend to agree, but I'm not decided yet

ralphm, I agree that actual byte-for-byte is wrong, but I don't think we need go further than codepoint comparison or perhaps canonicalization.

dwd: right

so I sent that message to the list

so I saw, thanks
