07:30:33 jonasw Link Mauve, +1
07:30:33 arc has left
07:31:11 jonasw I still have no good idea how to glue all the layers together in my client to actaully be able to implement that chain of fallbacks :/
07:31:54 arc has joined
07:33:59 zinid my thoughts exactly when I try to implement new cool xmpp things: calling hooks in unexpected places is annoying
07:34:27 zinid for example, dealing with messages forks and carbons is a nightmare
07:34:46 jonasw zinid, you should involve yourself in the Message Routing 2.0 discussion, if you aren’t already
07:34:52 jonasw things might in fact get simpler
07:35:21 jonasw I always wonder whether this perceived complexity is from my inexperience with 1Mloc+ projects or if this is specific to the IM domain or if this is specific to the XMPP domain
07:36:32 lskdjf has joined
07:36:39 Kev has joined
07:36:42 zinid I think that's because of paradigms change
07:36:57 jonasw you mean existing code having hardship with adapting to the new situations?
07:36:59 zinid we used to have simple chatting where you don't need to *synchronize*
07:37:07 zinid no, I mean IM paradigm
07:37:29 zinid now we face the problem which is in fact data *synchronization*
07:37:43 zinid take a look at mam and carbons
07:37:50 zinid those are clearly replica transfers
07:37:55 jonasw sure
07:38:11 zinid so I would suggest to implement this replica layer first
07:38:22 zinid but I have no idea how to make the transition :/
07:41:02 zinid I also think XML is not the best way to exchange replicas, lol
07:41:34 Steve Kille has left
07:43:12 zinid anyway, we can invent new and shiny IM 2.0, but how to make the transition?
07:43:25 zinid that's why I virtually don't discuss the topic
07:43:30 zinid I have no ideas
07:43:32 jonasw zinid, there have been very concrete proposals
07:43:57 zinid jonasw: I didn't find the solution with ancient servers
07:44:09 zinid I mean I didn't see such proposal
07:44:28 jonasw (using Bind 2.0 as a signal for "use IM 2.0 rules" and some s2s protocol to make serves negotiate that between them, PLUS and here’s where your ancient servers come into play, fallback to the existing Hints for Carbons and MAM by writing them explicitly into the messages when transferring to IM 1.0 domains)
07:45:05 zinid fuck yeah, much easier :D
07:45:18 jonasw much easier than what?
07:45:31 zinid [10:26:12] <jonasw> things might in fact get simpler
07:45:36 zinid what did you mean here? :)
07:45:57 zinid I see only more complexity, it looks for me new servers need to maintain old and new behaviour
07:46:01 jonasw zinid, inside the IM 2.0 domain, you’d see much simpler rules for archiving and carbons than what we currently have
07:47:29 zinid probably, but those rules still suck in the sense of replica synchronization
07:47:37 jonasw do they?
07:47:41 zinid for example eventual consistency is not guaranteed at all
07:47:45 jonasw ~~isn’t its~~ ✎
07:47:47 jonasw isn’t it? ✏
07:47:49 zinid you can lose messages easily
07:47:51 jonasw how?
07:47:55 zinid via s2s failures?
07:48:08 jonasw stream management?
07:48:17 zinid it doesn't solve all the problems
07:48:21 jonasw sure, but many
07:48:26 zinid no
07:48:38 zinid it doesn't solve a problem with server outage for significant time
07:48:40 jonasw and also, the current discussion is mostly about different clients on the same account
07:48:46 jonasw do you think it should be extended to different accounts?
07:48:47 zinid typically the message is buffered for 5 minutes
07:49:04 jonasw on server outage with significant time I’d expect message loss, it’s as simple as that
07:49:07 zinid yes, I know what about the current discussion ;)
07:49:20 jonasw the sender would get an error back, it’s a rather clear situation?
07:49:44 zinid jonasw: well, I have quite some experiences in database design and I would say consistency should be guaranteed even with huge outage
07:50:10 zinid jonasw: yes, it will receive error back, then what? the recipient loses the message forever
07:50:42 jonasw it is clear to the sender that the recipient has never seen the message
07:50:55 jonasw or that the message was never even sent
07:51:02 zinid yeah, that's not how eventual consistency works ;)
07:51:03 jonasw I find it consistent.
07:51:03 SamWhited has left
07:51:19 jonasw both nodes end up to "know" the "message was not sent" state
07:51:21 zinid you face inconsistent state and you need to resolve it *eventually*
07:51:30 jonasw (the sender explicitly by seeing the error, the recipient implicitly by not seeing the message)
07:51:47 Ge0rG has left
07:51:52 Ge0rG has left
07:51:55 zinid no, recipient node might know jack shit
07:52:23 zinid due to unexpected failures
07:52:27 Ge0rG has left
07:52:31 zinid this is acceptable in p2p computing for example
07:52:40 zinid and is tolerated
07:52:43 zinid but not in xmpp ;)
07:52:46 SamWhited has joined
07:52:48 SamWhited has joined
07:58:00 zinid distributed databases even have anti-entropy technics to deal with rotten bits (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_rot), but let's say we don't need this in xmpp (at least so far)

08:00:19 zinid I find matrix approach very decent in this regard, however their use of http polling and json is annoying

08:02:54 Syndace has joined
08:04:01 nyco has left
08:04:25 Guus has left
08:05:25 Holger Exactly.
08:06:50 zinid yeah, the idea is great, implementation is shit
08:07:24 zinid I still think servers should not replicate, it should be done peer-to-peer
08:07:46 zinid servers could maintain replicas, but this is not required
08:08:21 nyco has joined
08:11:07 Holger The replicas are just caches in Matrix I think. At least I don't see why servers couldn't just ditch and later re-fetch them.
08:11:36 zinid probably, I don't know all the details
08:11:55 Guus has left
08:14:23 zinid but look, this is much easier to fetch replicas p2p: when you become available you ask for replicas of your contacts (possessing the last seen message id)
08:14:32 zinid you don't even need stream management queues for this
08:14:57 jonasw except that you wouldn’t want your phone to drain its battery on syncing other peoples messages
08:15:30 zinid jonasw: yes, so replication servers are needed, so they can reply to such replica requests by themselves (without client involvement)
08:15:55 jonasw at which point you’re ditching the p2p approach and we’re kind-of back to "ask for MAM on your server"
08:16:06 daniel has left
08:16:14 zinid no, I can disable this feature on my server
08:17:15 zinid but this can be implemented via MAM, yes
08:17:30 zinid we already have this for groupchats
08:17:38 zinid why contacts are different?
08:17:52 jonasw see above?
08:18:03 daniel has left
08:18:15 zinid what exactly do you mean? MAM should be considered as just another replica or cache
08:18:24 jonasw I mean the power consumption issue.
08:18:26 zinid of course there can be tons of replicas, so?
08:18:48 zinid what issue if you ask your server to maintain replicas?
08:18:49 jonasw I don’t see how that would work, discovery and security-wise.
08:19:01 jonasw I don’t have any issue with that, it is simply MAM
08:19:13 zinid I don't find it less secure than current approach
08:19:20 jonasw anyways, gotta go, I already typed too much today (hand injury) :(
08:19:44 zinid jonasw: this is kinda "enchanced" mam :)

11:17:43 Link Mauve “07:54:06 jonasw> on server outage with significant time I’d expect message loss, it’s as simple as that”, people coming from email would be sad to hear that, it’s been a solved problem for a long time there.
11:18:08 jonasw Link Mauve, when you have a long outage, emails will bounce just like IM messages do
11:18:27 jonasw the term "long" is relative and may be different for IM and Email
11:19:50 Zash It's *Instant* Messaging after all
11:23:10 zinid Zash: nah, it's data replication now, that's the problem
11:23:25 Zash Yeah :(
11:23:26 zinid and we're trying to solve this replication problem via IM
11:23:46 daniel has left
11:25:01 Link Mauve Hence the huge whiteboard I’ve been promised for years. :(
11:25:18 jonasw FOSDEM?
11:25:35 Zash Yes! Brussels 2018 - The Whiteboardening
11:25:48 jonasw sounds like I really need to sort that out

12:21:29 jonasw ah, they failed to sanitize HTML :)
12:21:45 jonasw the HTML support in the markdown component is left enabled intentionally
12:22:14 intosi has joined
12:22:33 zinid html inside markdown looks like a really insane idea ;)
12:22:44 jonasw zinid, markdown is specified as an HTML superset, IIRC
12:22:45 Zash markdown is defined as a html superset
12:22:54 Zash too slow
12:23:14 zinid wat?
12:23:22 zinid a html superset?
12:23:26 jonasw yup
12:23:31 zinid what does that mean?
12:23:39 jonasw every valid HTML document is a valid markdown document
12:23:53 zinid oh shi~
12:24:00 jonasw ~~(even though I’m not sure that’s actually true, there are probably some corner casesr~~ ✎
12:24:04 jonasw (even though I’m not sure that’s actually true, there are probably some corner cases) ✏
12:24:07 jonasw but it’s intended to be that way
12:24:37 zinid actually, every text is a valid markdown document, no?
12:24:42 jonasw yes
12:24:53 zinid so markdown is a text superset, okay
12:25:02 jonasw but the semantics of a valid html document interpreted as markdown are the same of the html docmuent interpreted as html

18:10:15 Flow daniel, do you want a MAM namespace bump?
18:10:45 jjrh has left
18:11:12 daniel Flow: no?!
18:11:30 Flow or, in other words, isn't a MAM namespace bump required for your proposed excluded-types?
18:13:13 Flow or is the service required to return an error on unknown fields? which would be good I think
18:14:03 daniel Flow, i think the additional filter thingy is off the table anyway
18:14:23 daniel we just gonna adjust the rules
18:14:38 Flow ohh :( I like the idea of additional flexible filters which are discoverable
18:15:14 daniel Flow, custom filters are already part of the protocol
18:15:18 Flow and not specified in xep313
18:15:33 Ge0rG what about making MAM responses type=headline?
18:15:51 Ge0rG Aaaand changing the default configuration to "N/A"
18:15:56 Flow daniel, right, but there is currently no specification for message type filters
18:16:28 Flow Ge0rG, I can't follow, but it's likely because it has been a long week
18:17:02 Flow I believe that MAM archives should be allowed to also archive groupchat messages FWIW
18:17:02 daniel if they were specified they wouldn't be custom, no?
18:17:34 Ge0rG Flow: type=headline would better reflect the ephemeral status of MAM responses, and the rationale for "N/A" is in https://mail.jabber.org/pipermail/standards/2017-November/033762.html (c)
18:18:04 Ge0rG Flow: why do you believe that way?
18:18:52 Flow daniel, probably, but does not matter, I want a mandatory set of filter mechanism which can be extended by discoverable additional filters, so that we can experiment which filters are a good idea and which are unnecessary
18:18:57 daniel Ge0rG, am i reading this mail correctly you are planning to come to the summit?
18:19:13 Flow Ge0rG, most for the same reasons that Kev said
18:19:25 Ge0rG Flow: I disagree with Kev on that.
18:19:50 Ge0rG daniel: I can't promise that.
18:19:56 Ge0rG I really can't.
18:21:12 stefandxm has joined
18:21:20 Flow Ge0rG, My vision is to give MAM services maximal freedom regarding what to archive, and clients should be given the filtering mechanisms they need
18:21:44 Ge0rG Flow: what about using a separate XEP for all of that?
18:22:04 Flow Ge0rG, for the f
18:22:12 Flow iltering mechs?
18:22:29 Flow (the optinal filtering mechs)
18:22:30 Zash What gets stored should be up to server policy. What gets can be described by a XEP
18:22:32 Ge0rG Flow: no, for things that go beyond normal im client message archival.
18:22:55 Ge0rG Zash: implementation defied!!!!
18:22:56 Flow Ge0rG, wouldn't that be an MAM alternative?
18:23:20 Ge0rG Flow: what about using the same backend storage but not return everything to normal MAM requests?
18:24:07 Flow Ge0rG, if you still have the possiblity to return groupchat and probably all other types of messages, then that would be fine in my book
18:24:28 Flow err, to return if the client asked for it
18:24:46 Ge0rG Flow: the server is free to store anything it wants, as longs as it only returns what's written in MAM on a normal MAM query
18:24:51 daniel Flow, it's not my XEP; i could live with the filtering on query proposal. (also I believe storing groupchat in the personal archive has downsides that make it not really fit for use). I believe existing implementations would ignore unknown form fields. thus introducing new ones could be done without a NS bump
18:26:14 daniel so to answer you question no I'm not planning a NS bump. I'm not planning anything
18:26:39 Flow daniel, guess my initial question was if you think that your proposal 2) would require a NS bump
18:27:24 Flow I'm not sure if the service ignoring unknown fields means that you can avoid a namespace bump
18:28:02 Ge0rG really, let's get rid of namespace bumps altogether.
18:28:18 daniel i generally tend to be on the rather not bump if it doesn't cause issues with existing implementations faction
18:28:39 Flow Yeah for unexpected behavior
18:28:43 Ge0rG I'm sure it's possible to replace almost every ns bump with a feature.
18:29:04 Flow Ge0rG, well then it's ok
18:29:17 Ge0rG but in this specific case, I don't want to extend MAM.
18:29:19 daniel but existing implementations need to change anway because they a) need to start actutally storing groupchats b) add a database field for the type to make the query efficent
18:30:45 Ge0rG are there provisions in MAM to full-body-search for messages?
18:30:50 jjrh has left
18:31:17 Flow Ge0rG, I don't think so
18:31:37 Ge0rG Flow: so what's your use case again?
18:32:01 Flow And while at it, I want to point out that K9 did for years client local searches. It took a while until they implemented server side IMAP searches
18:32:47 Ge0rG Flow: that's actually an argument against gc in mam
18:34:18 Flow No, it's just an observation regarding the importance of a server side search feature

22:44:15 SamWhited It doesn't take much provocation to make him try to insult you. It would be more of a loss if new people see that kind of abuse and don't get involved because he'll just call them an idiot.
22:46:02 ralphm I've had multiple complaints, and I'd like to think I'm a reasonable and generally nice guy. I also read back some previous discussions. Before, other people asked nicely. I did a final attempt. He keeps on trolling. Fine.
22:48:21 ralphm I've suggested improvements to other people before, and those people have changed their ways. I can sometimes be annoyed, but this is simply intentionally riling up people, and I don't think we need to tolerate this.
22:48:48 Guus Oh, I didn't want to to imply you were unreasonable.
22:49:19 ralphm Good. You are actually close-by.
22:50:01 Guus Close-by?

23:11:18 ralphm If it was just that, it would be just fine. I say things like that all the time
23:11:56 SamWhited He's called multiple people idiots and been asked to stop, though he might not have used those words this time.
23:12:13 Holger Aha.
23:17:14 Guus Holger: I only asked him to be civil, and stopped when he made clear he had no intention.
23:19:44 Guus I've made a point of not escalate things. Sadly, that did not work.
23:21:10 Holger I see him using flippant slang. As for the substance, I see him ranting against how this community does things. I totally understand how he won't make friends that way.
23:22:03 Guus I'm perfectly fine with arguments and dont mind expletives at all - but I do think it's important to have civil discourse.
23:22:05 Holger But I won't agree with this as a reason for a ban.
23:24:02 SamWhited He was asked to stop multiple times by different people including Guus, me, George, and probably others and only responded with abuse. Then someone who actually has authority politely warned him and he still didn't listen, I'm not sure what else there is to do besides a ban.
23:25:22 SamWhited If he tells a new person that their spec or ideas are garbage they're not likely to come back; no community needs that kind of toxic behavior, no matter how smart the person is.
23:27:06 ralphm Holger: just read back the logs for a few days. He's more than welcome if he can behave like a normal person.

I found some purely technical comments on various details, some ranting on MIX, EXI, Twitter, Java, the XSF membership/council election process, and our priorities. I guess I overlooked something.
