Reminder that the office hours are in 1.5 hours! More info: https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/XMPP_Office_Hours

Sam: ahhh I havent poste something

I forgot to send out the posts too

Lets try to find some regular process, maybe on sundays

Yah, I have a page on the wiki about when to do what (I was thinking mondays ~24 hours before hand because then the most people are likely to be online and see the message and it's easier to remember for 24 hours that it's tomorrow than it is to remember for longer, but that was just a hunch, no idea if it's true

but feel free to mess with it if you want to change it; it's just the check list I've been trying to remember to follow: https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Office_Hours_Checklist

Might end up being moved again because no one is here for the first time in office hours history, but we're in theory starting now if anyone wants to join :) https://socialcoop.meet.coop/sam-pku-dud-niv

If an implementation wanted to place limits on the number of bytes in attribute values (as well as on attribute and element names, but notably not on character data inside elements), what would that be?

1023

or 1023*3+2

or 4k

(context: as attribute values are generally atomic when talking e.g. about SAX (you cannot split an attribute value in two parts and emit two separate strings when streaming, in contrast to element cdata), this limit controls the size of the internal buffer of the parser)

Each JID component can theoretically be up to 1023 octets, so it would be weird if that couldn't be parsed.
