another thing is, how to migrate from vcard-temp to vcard4
-
lovetox
say user logs into the client, and i discover there is vcard-temp entry, and a vcard4 entry
-
lovetox
hm ok just hoping the server converts 4 to temp
-
lovetox
but this is nowhere speced or?
-
Link Mauve
lovetox, https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0292.xml#migration specifies the migration in one direction.

Link Mauve, a migration needs some kind of marker that you know that a migration happend
-
lovetox
but because of avatar conversion, vcard-temp is not going away
-
lovetox
so it will always be there, and i dont see how you easily can say, i migrated that vcard already
-
lovetox
the vcard spec is so generic and allows almost anything, there is really no chance you can ever design a UI for all of it
-
lovetox
and then you have to pick the things you want to support
-
lovetox
for examle the <n> element, it allows for unlimited <surname> elements
-
lovetox
and if i supper unlimited surnames, the first client that does not support it will delete all my data ..✎ -
