Summit must drive me crazy about XMPP, I see it every where:

ok ok, good night 🫡

emus: hmm nice

tallship@jabber.org: every federated XMPP MUC (like this one) is bridged to a Matrix room (and vice versa), because several organizations run Matrix<->XMPP bridges - see https://aria-net.org/SitePages/Portal/Bridges.aspx for one example
-
ossguy
using the above example, the Matrix room for this MUC would be #_bifrost_summit_muc.xmpp.org:aria-net.org
-
Menel
For my understanding thats not a bridged room, but a matrix user joining over a bridge

Aiming to get to FOSDEM before 10
-
ralphm
I'm at breakfast now
-
ralphm
Not in a particular hurry
-
MattJ
K, I'll probably be down in 10min or so

ralphm
👍

Kev, for the record, my point was that hams aren't allowed to do crypto.

For anyone at the FOSDEM stand... I kinda published on Mastodon that I'd be doing a drop-in Snikket install support from 10am. Ralph and I will be heading for FOSDEM in a moment, but we'll not make it in before 10. I trust anyone present can either delay people, tell them to come back or (best of all) walk them though the Snikket setup: https://snikket.org/service/quickstart/ ;)

I'm at a talk closeby, if I'm needed, ping me, then I can pop-up

MattJ: sorry, didnt manage to toot this

emus
MattJ: maybe later again?

ralphm
About tear-down. We start around 17:00. At 17:30 everything needs to be cleared out, trash trashed, tables and chair collected, and floors swept.
-
ossguy
Menel: I guess maybe I don't understand Matrix's representation of things - how would a "bridged room" be different from one that happens to be hosted by a bridge? (and perhaps this is off-topic, so it's fine if we don't get into it here)
-
Menel
ossguy: it is possible to "glue" two rooms together. Matrix users join a matrix rooms and xmpp users an xmpp room. But both see each others users and messages. Thats a bridged room. If I join a matrix room with my xmpp client or a matrix user does the opposite.. Thats just a user joining via a bridge. Not a bridged room.
-
ralphm
I think the difference is on what is being bridged. If you bridge a room, it is a single room that has two protocol "sides". If you bridge the user, you represent that user in the other protocol somehow and the room having no knowledge about the user not being a native user.
-
ossguy
I suppose I don't see why I'd want a bridged room (or why this would be a thing you'd bother implementing in a federated protocol)
-
MSavoritias (fae,ve)
from the joinjabber faq "Gateways" or "transports" enable users to connect to other networks (IRC, Matrix...) as if they had joined it directly; the gateway will create a user session on the remote network in a process called "puppeteering"; "Bridges" connect collective spaces (such as chatrooms) across networks without user intervention ; they can relay message through a dedicated user (relay bot) or by "puppeteering" users on remote networks. Some remote networks also allow the relay bot to temporarily change its name with is referred to as "user spoofing".

Menel
Matrix uses a lot of brisged rooms for irc✎ -
Menel
Matrix uses a lot of bridged rooms for irc. See the fdroid room. It is bridged via at least three protocols ✏
-
ralphm
Federation is hard enough. Federating two federations is something that I don't get know how to do reasonably. You either have to relay and have multiple hops or you need to settle on a single s2s protocol.
-
ossguy
Menel: yeah, I can see why for IRC (since IRC isn't federated) but it doesn't make sense to me for other federated protocols
-
MSavoritias (fae,ve)
yeah. or you lose all the features and it is just text
-
MSavoritias (fae,ve)
like irc bridged rooms
-
moparisthebest
I've never once seen bridged rooms with good UX
-
Menel
Of the matrix bridge would just behave like biboumi, and the users would just know they write for irc too, it would be ok
-
moparisthebest
Vs just having 1 source of truths and other protocols running their own transports, for example biboumi has *excellent* ux for folks in both sides
-
MSavoritias (fae,ve)
one of the things that bugs me about biboumi is having to remember how to write the uri to join a room
-
MSavoritias (fae,ve)
plus that it is irc of course
-
ossguy
ralphm: when you say "the room having no knowledge about the user not being a native user", how does that work? wouldn't people still be able to tell by the user's Matrix ID (or Jabber ID)? or are you saying that the person needs to register an additional Matrix/Jabber ID in order to join a bridged room?
-
moparisthebest
Biboumi could probably help you write the URL with adhoc commands or similar, but it's pretty straightforward
-
Menel
#room%ircserver@yourxmppcomponent.tld. Just remember # % done
-
MSavoritias (fae,ve)
of course. looks practically the same as xmpp rooms /s
-
ossguy
(which reminds me of another thought I had: if people are concerned about "yucky-looking" JIDs/Matrix IDs for their rooms (i.e. that's why they want to make a "bridge room"), wouldn't a simpler "ID alias" protocol be better?)
-
moparisthebest
MSavoritias (fae,ve): it's channel%server@biboumi unsure how it could get easier
-
moparisthebest
# is part of the channel name typically on most (but not all!) IRC servers

German Train just gave me an extra cookie because I paid cash^^ Was a great experiences folks, hope to see you soon!

moparisthebest: biboumi lets you dedicate an fqdn to a specific server, so you can do #room@servername.biboumi.example, which is nice
-
Menel
Uh. Didn't yet find that option, interesting!
-
moparisthebest
mathieui: right but that requires running a biboumi per XMPP server right? Still a nice option to have for sure✎ -

-
mathieui
moparisthebest, yep
-
moparisthebest
But anyway if the channel host wants to "bridge" that's 100% the correct way to do it, as you still keep the single source of truth model

MattJ, nice picture in the room, with "[Matrix]" on the board right behind you :P
