    What's that sasl mode that proves the server knows your password?

    I recall Zash talking about it, like it'd be safe to use with a self signed cert type thing

  400. marc

    Ge0rG, are you going to change your langing page such that it accepts xmpp URIs?

  401. Ge0rG

    marc: are you going to look up how to do a string replace in Erlang?

  402. marc

    Ge0rG, yeah, if you tell me the reason for _not_ using the xmpp URI ;)

  403. Ge0rG

    marc: every character counts. more characters = longer QR codes = less readabiliy = higher chance for typos when entering manually

  404. Ge0rG

    marc: the "xmpp:" is really redundant there.

  405. Ge0rG

    marc: besides, you need to url-encode the JID anyway, so you won't get around custom processing.

  406. Ge0rG

    marc: and you could just make the default prefix "xmpp:" for when constructing the link

  407. marc

    Ge0rG, that's not a good reason for _not_ accepting it ;)

  408. Ge0rG

    marc: yes it is. I'm forcing you to do something that's good for your users.

  409. marc

    ...

  410. marc

    sounds like I need to fork :D

  411. Guus has left

  414. marc

    Ge0rG, not sure if this is gonna happen for this thing ;)

  415. jonasw

    marc, FWIW, I think Ge0rG has a point here.

  416. marc

    jonasw, 5 chars?

  417. marc

    are you going to ban too long local parts of a JID too? :D

  418. marc

    or too long domain names?

  419. daniel has left

  420. daniel has joined

  421. Ge0rG

    marc: now guess why I own yax.im

  422. marc

    Ge0rG, because it's a funny name?

  423. marc

    probably I'll append the OMEMO keys to the QR code

  424. marc

    We generate QR codes for a XMPP URI and 5 OMEMO keys at the moment

  425. marc

    Works fine

  426. Ge0rG

    marc: to the xmpp URI or to the location URL?

  427. marc

    Ge0rG, to the xmpp URI

  428. marc

    doesn't make sense to transfer OMEMO keys via an "insecure" channel

  429. Ge0rG

    marc: not much probably.

  430. marc

    it's for the QR code only

  431. ralphm has joined

  432. Ge0rG

    marc: I mean obviously it does make sense to transmit them but not to trust them.

  433. Ge0rG

    just check for MitM

  434. marc

    Ge0rG, nitpicker ;)

  435. Ge0rG

    marc: professional pessimist^W security analyst :P

  436. marc

    Ge0rG, if we put the URI into the fragment part we don't need to URL encode it AFAIK

  437. suzyo has joined

  438. suzyo has joined

  439. Ge0rG

    marc: except when we do.

  440. marc

    Ge0rG, hm?

  441. Ge0rG

    marc: as I mentioned some days ago, have a look at typical irc Transport JIDs

  442. Ge0rG

    marc: https://yax.im/i/#%23channel%25irc.man-da.de@irc.transport.server?join

  443. marc

    Ge0rG, wtf should I care about IRC transport URIs for invitation?

  444. Ge0rG

    marc: "#" is a valid local part character

  445. marc

    Ge0rG, "'#" can be used as username?

  446. Zash

    -nodeprep #hello

  447. Bunneh

    Zash: #hello

  448. jonasw

    yeah

  449. Ge0rG really needs to change name into Cassandra.

  450. Guus has left

  451. marc

    Ge0rG, but URL encoding is the wrong thing here, we don't need to escape all characters as not URL encoders do

  452. marc

    ...as normal..

  453. Ge0rG

    marc: good luck figuring out the right subset. Also don't forget to tell me!

  454. marc

    Ge0rG, if you would _really_ care about the chars you would spend your time to figure it out ;)

  455. Ge0rG

  504. Guus

    marc, yes (although we're cheating by embedding jitsi-meet in a browser component)

  505. marc

    Guus, is this some closed-source component?

  506. Tobias

    Guus, but doing jingle xmpp protocol?

  507. Guus

    Jitsi Meet is open source, a webrtc-based solution that uses XMPP (COIN/Colibri/Jingle) for negotiation.

    we've server-sided wrapped that solution in a very-easy-to-install plugin

  509. Guus

    clients will detect its presence, and use it isntead of the public instance

  510. Guus

    from there, it's a matter of opening the correct URL, and let Jitsi do the rest.

  511. Holger

    What's COIN?

  512. Guus

    Added bonus is that users of our client can invite anyone that has a browser.

  513. marc

    Guus, so you had a video conference between browsers running jitsi meet?

    marc, yes.

    But I can see you :D

  528. Guus

    I am nice to look at :D

  529. marc

    Nice

  530. marc

    Works fine

  531. lumi has joined

    yeah, one-on-one is peer-to-peer

  533. marc

    Maybe somebody else can join to test with n > 2? :)

  534. Guus

    beyond that, a bridge kicks in

  535. marc

    where is that bridge hosted?

  536. Guus

    I've added a uuid to make the room name somewhat more unique, but neglected doing that in a muc context

  537. Guus

    it's part of the Jitsi setup. We're now using their public service, but that is also deployable as an Openfire plugin

  538. marc

    Nice, now we need this in some desktop / moible client :)

  539. Guus

    (or a standalone installation if you go with their setup)

  540. Guus

    they do have a mobile client

  541. marc

    okay, now we need this in other mobile clients :D

  542. Dave Cridland has left

  543. Guus

    they have an API that potentially is usable for that

  544. Guus

    not my area of expertise though

  545. SamWhited

    Jitsi doesn't like my home network for some reason, that's new.

  546. Guus

    I popped out for a second

  547. Guus

    still, you should've been able to join that Meet.

  548. Guus

    ... you know that, having worked at their stuff :)

    if you're trying to use their public service, it should pretty much work out of the box, if you're not blocking outbound traffic and have a relatively sane NAT setup.

    ok good

  596. suzyo has left

  597. suzyo has joined

  598. Guus

    shall we?

  599. ralphm

    So I don't see many changes from last time around. Did we progress on any of the items in our Trello, and discuss it?

  600. MattJ

    I think we skipped last week because of lack of people, and I don't remember the week before that

  601. Guus

    we skipped the week before too

  602. Guus

    no progress that I am aware of, although one new item was added

  603. Guus

    the comm-wt card

  604. ralphm

    Ok

  605. Ge0rG

    And I forgot to write to an ML regarding a SPAM SIG :(

  606. ralphm

    Ok, let's start with these then

  607. mrdoctorwho has joined

  608. ralphm

    1. Communications Team

  609. Guus

    if desirable, we can do a post-mortem on the summit/fosdem too

  610. ralphm

    (ok)

  611. ralphm

    I'm with Kev on this, that we don't really need this to be formalized

  612. Nekit has joined

  613. ralphm

    (at the moment)

  614. ralphm

    I'd rather just first see some stuff happening, without the yak shaving

  615. Guus

    I think it helps to get stuff under way

  616. ralphm

    How?

  617. Guus

    by defining that team members get access to things they want to use to produce stuff.

  618. ralphm

    I strongly believe we should get away from needing some kind of formal structure to be able to do things.

  619. MattJ

    I'm hearing that, combined with "we need to restrict access to XSF resources"

  620. Nekit has left

  621. Ge0rG

    you might want to approve the persons named for comm-wt access to github, before they go away in disdain.

  622. Guus

    well, getting access to resources are a pain. I've done that plenty of times recently, and it was always painful and took way to long for comfort.

  623. ralphm

    Ge0rG: wait what?

  624. Guus

    i'm not seeing harm in us formaly defining the team again, and defining that its members get read/write access to our website and social media accounts.

  625. stefandxm has left

  626. MattJ

    Same here

  627. Ge0rG

    ralphm: referring to JC's last email on that thread.

  628. MattJ

    I agree this shouldn't be so painful, but it appears to me that (re)formation of the team seems the least painful way for everyone involved

  629. Guus

    (also, the overhead of us doing this is minor)

  630. ThurahT has left

  631. ralphm

    But since this is GitHub, why can't we start with pull requests (that don't require any additional permissions) and move from that? I think that's the point Kev tried to make. I'm not opposed to restart a formal team, but I don't see it being on the critical path.

  632. Ge0rG

    ralphm: the deployment cycle via PRs and editor bugging is long and frustrating

  633. Guus

    ralphm: because it's keeping the team-members dependent of others, and thus less effective. Also, I really don't see the harm in not giving them access.

  634. Guus

    why not facilitate them if it benefits us all?

  635. marmistrz has joined

  636. Guus

    as I said, most of the work for board on this is this debate. After that, it's asking iteam to add some permissions to existing resources.

  637. Guus

    which I assume will take them about five minutes to implement

  638. intosi

    iteam can do that, words need only be said.

  639. ralphm

    Ok, so let me get this straight. The deployment cycle of the site itself is cumbersome and would require an Editor to approve?

  640. intosi

    It does not.

  641. Guus

    no, it now requires <unnamed entity> (usually me) to approve.

  642. intosi

    It requires someone with commit permissions on the website repo to merge the PR.

  643. nifker has left

  644. MattJ

    Which is currently (iteam + editors)?

  645. Guus

    no, it's undefined, as far as I know

  646. Ge0rG

    wouldn't that be another reason to name it "comm-team"?

  647. Guus

    (defining that comm-team gets access would be another nice side-eff... what he said)

  648. Guus

    What would be arguments for _not_ doing this?

  649. jjrh has left

  650. andy has joined

  651. ralphm

    Well, it is just a bit of work to get going.

  652. ralphm

    You need a charter, a chair and Members (only).

  653. Guus

    I believe that's neglible.

  654. Guus

    the charter has been proposed, as has the chair and member list

  655. Guus

    (on list, and in @commsteam)

  656. Guus

    @commteam, not @commsteam

  657. moparisthebest has joined

  658. moparisthebest has joined

  659. MattJ

    I'm also inclined towards "let's just do it"

  660. ralphm

    Ok. I didn't see the chair mentioned. I have no strong objections to having a formal team with only those Members having those accesses for publishing at xmpp.org

  661. Guus

    the chair was mentioned in the MUC only (being JC)

  662. ralphm

    Aha

  663. Guus

    it'd also be good if that team can use our social media accounts (which currently is limited to Twitter, I think?)

  664. Ge0rG

    It would be great to mention all the many XMPP-deploying projects on @XMPP

  665. ralphm

    So the proposal is as the e-mail with JC as chair.

  666. Dave Cridland has left

  667. ralphm

    The only objection I have is Simon not (currently) being a Member.

  668. ralphm

    AFIAK

  669. Guus

    ah, good catch.

  670. Guus

    bylaws do say: "Participation in Teams shall be limited to elected Members of the Corporation."

  671. ralphm

    Indeed that was my point

  672. ralphm

    So assuming Guus is motioning this with the exception of Simon, I'm +1

  673. Guus

    he's not listed as a member, nor do find an application for him

  674. Guus

    Ok, I'm motioning.

  675. ralphm

    For the record: Daniel Wisnewski (Daniel_W) Jan-Carel Brand (jcbrand) as Chair Nicolas Vérité (Nyco) Severino Ferrer de la Peñita (Seve or SouL) Charter: The team's mission is to inform the XMPP community and interested parties on news and recent developments within XMPP ecosystem.

  676. MattJ

    So he can still submit PRs/etc. but a member will need to approve

  677. MattJ

    Still an acceptable situation if you ask me

  678. ralphm

    Right

  679. Guus

    agreed

  680. ralphm

    I left off the second part of the charter as it seems superfluous and not alligned with the bylaws w.r.t. openness of the team itself. Of course others are still free to contribute through the Team.

  681. ralphm

    aligned even

  682. Guus

    agreed (as was agreed on in the mail htread)

  683. ralphm

    Yeah, just repeating here for the record

  684. Guus

    I'm +1 to the formation of the WT, the chair and member list, and the charter.

  685. ralphm

    +1 (again)

  686. MattJ

    +1

  687. ralphm

    Yay

  688. Guus

    also, I motion that we grant read/write permission to the source code repository that holds the XMPP.org website code to all members of the Communications work team - which should reflect future team changes.

  689. ralphm

    The motion carries.

  690. SaltyBones has left

  691. SaltyBones has joined

  692. ralphm

    Guus: I don't think we need to formalize that per se. But I'm sure Kev and intosi can make sure of the necessary technical requirements for the Team to carry out their task.

  693. blabla has left

  694. Guus

    I'd simply like to avoid a situation where everyone looks at eachother and wonders who is allowed access, by making this explicit.

  695. jubalh has joined

  696. intosi

    Is there a list of github user ids for the members of the comms team?

  697. moparisthebest has joined

  698. Guus

    intosi: I'll ask them to provide that

  699. intosi

    Ta.

  700. ralphm

    I'm sure there will be other things that access is required for and I'm not sure if asking Board every time is needed. If iteam would give out too many creds, that'd be the day.

  701. intosi

    Sure. Comms team can just ask iteam.

  702. Guus

    I was going to follow up with one more similar motion, for social media accounts :)

  703. ralphm

    I trust iteam to handle this all properly.

  704. Guus

    ok, works for me

  705. ralphm

    I think that's enough for today, right?

  719. Ge0rG

  720. Guus

    sorry Ge0rG

  721. MattJ

    Ge0rG, haven't we discussed the spam team 50 times already?

  722. ralphm

    We actually rejected it because there wasn't a feeling of needing a team of SIG for doing things around that topic.

  723. Ge0rG

    MattJ: with the Spam Fighting Manifesto, there is some traction in the open to improve default server configs, write modules to block domains etc.

  724. ralphm

    Great.

  725. jjrh has left

  726. Ge0rG

    but that said Manifesto is made by a single volunteer who lacks time to incorporate feedback from server admins already.

    comm team effective immediately, with the list JC mailed?

  741. intosi

    I note that Winfried replied that he wanted to be on it as well.

  742. Ge0rG

    intosi: without Simon AFAIU

  743. ralphm

    Ge0rG: it is not about bothering. It is about not feeling for doing a lot of bureaucracy just because.

  744. Ge0rG

    ralphm: ah, I see

  745. Guus

    intosi, in my understanding, Winfried was in, Simon out.

  746. jonasw

    couldn’t we put the anti spam manifesto under the xsf account?

  747. ralphm

    intosi: yes. I think Winfried already has permissions, by the way, and I wasn't sure if was actually applying for the team or merely contributing.

  748. Guus

    intosi, scratch that

  749. Guus

    we didn't include Winfried when voting (I overlooked that)

  750. ralphm

    jonasw: why?

  751. jonasw

    ralphm, dunno, if georg is unhappy with having that under his account

  752. ralphm

    The TLS manifesto was also not an XSF activity and worked out fine

  753. jonasw

    I’m just throwing ideas in the room

  754. MattJ

    jonasw, as I understand it some people are opposed to the manifesto. It's just going to cause way more debate and just be counter-productive when it's totally unnecessary in the first place

  755. jonasw

    yeah, true

  756. ralphm

    and what MattJ said applied to that manifesto, too

  757. MattJ

    Right

    Ge0rG, fixed my ejabberd implementation but your landing page doesn't work on "firefox klar"

  994. marc

    Ge0rG, no button is clickable

  995. marc

    Ge0rG, can you verify and at least add an issue please

    marc: Is that different than Firefox Focus?

  1005. marc

    waqas, it seems, I don't know if they use a different engine, probably not

  1006. marc

    maybe some javascript issue but at least some javascript code works

  1007. marc

    the xmpp URI is correct etc.

  1008. marc

    waqas, oh, thought you're asking about "normal" firefox

  1009. waqas

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.focus&hl=en and https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.klar&hl=en look practically the same, both were updated on February 5, and only Focus is listed on the Mozilla page: https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Mozilla&hl=en

  1010. marc

    waqas, does it work for "firefox focus"?

  1011. waqas

    I was asking what Klar was, as I've only heard of Focus

  1012. marc

    waqas, AFAIK it's just the german version of firefox focus

  1013. jubalh has left

  1014. waqas

    Ah, right you are: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/difference-between-firefox-focus-and-firefox-klar
