GuusI'm toying with an idea, for to XSF to offer up a prize for development of the best/first/somehow-to-be-qualified new (client?) XMPP software, X-Prize style. My primary motivation is to facilitate the development of new, feature complete / representable software for things that are currently missing from the XMPP eco-system. A decent, free IOS client, perhaps? What do you guys think?
edhelasI like the idea :)
edhelasbut maybe put a couple of categories, like the Oscars, best UX, best security, best XMPP support...
GuusI don't have a concrete plan for the shape or form, so yeah, that's all possible.
GuusThat said: we have limited resources, so for the incentive to be interesting enough, we might not want to have to split things up to much.
Yagizahas left
edhelasyeah just a few of them, it could be a simple vote and we design a some logos that the winner project can put on their README :D
lovetoxyou have to be prepared that no client reaches the goal, that would be a bit embarasing then

SeveI would not split if possible, indeed. If it must be a client, I would say something missing. Either features missing in the modern times or a client for a platform with no clients/up-to-date clients

Guus(or more)
Guuslovetox: the challenge need not be time-restricted. If no client reaches the goal, the effort will fizzle out over time, without much harm done.
Guusalso, I'm willing to take that chance.
jonas’Guus, this will be very frustrating for developers who simply cannot invest the time without reliable source of income from the xmpp development :/
GuusGe0rG: maybe. I don't yet care at this point. 🙂
Guusjonas' - that's one of my concerns - I'd not like to dissuade others.
Ge0rGI'm pretty sure you won't be allowed to do that within the XSF
Guusbut, on the other side: the XMPP community would benefit more from having a limited amount of pretty good clients, than a large amount of very shitty ones...
Ge0rGGuus: that's absolutely true
GuusGe0rG: at this time, I'm first trying to figure out if the idea itself is viable. We can worry about the appropriate vehicle later.

jonas’a working XMPP client on iOS probably needs voice chat though
jonas’to get privileges for push

Guus👍
KevA decent iOS client needs more thinking than it seems.
Ge0rGI'm not sure it's really needed if we properly tackle xmpp push
jonas’so… maybe that should be the goal? but then again, the number you’d have to put on the table to have a freelancer implement audio chat from scratch is .. high
KevWe need to get Push properly sorted for it.
jonas’Ge0rG, is it? my understanding was that push is unreliable unless you get a voip whitelist
jonas’Ge0rG, is it? my understanding was that push is unreliable unless you get a voip whitelist mark or whatever
jonas’but I’m not familiar with iOS development
KevThe VOIP thing was so that you could leave yourself running in the background to defeat TCP being killed when you're backgrounded.
Ge0rGMaybe Monal has that.
jonas’ah, right
jonas’that would be better than push, indeed
KevNot really, I think.
jonas’but, so, not a requirement
jonas’Kev, why?
KevPush and quick resync is the better solution. But we don't have a good resync solution at the moment.

jonas’daniel, maybe get in touch with $iOSClientDeveloper and get it sorted then?
jonas’okay
GuusKev, did you document that?
vinx55has joined
jonas’I’ll shut up then :)
KevYou can get by with just Push, but to get the really good experience you also need much faster resyncs than we can currently do.
KevGuus: There are many aspects to getting this right, including MAM, MIX, Push and Routing2.
KevSo yes, I've been trying to document the various needed moving parts.
GuusKev: that's why I hoped for existing documentation 🙂
danielI think Chris kinda knows it too. But since it wasn't build into chatsecure it requires heavy refactoring
danielAnd you probably don't want to use a traditional xmpp library
Ge0rGdaniel: what about just writing the magic into the XEP?
KevThe thing that I would get a lot of hate for suggesting is that I think there would be value in ... XMPP over HTTP.
Zashhas joined
Ge0rGKev: different from BOSH?
KevAs a quick resync mechanism, so that we could poll in the background.
danielWell I know how to start and I'm fairly confident I could figure out the missing pieces as I go. But it's not that I could write down a step by step how to
KevGe0rG: Yes, just for polling.
Ge0rGKev: you need cookies / tokens then
KevYes.
Ge0rGKev: also not sure what problem that'll solve, apart from paranoid firewalls
danielAnd nobody would then implement it so it would be a wasted effort anyway
GuusDoes anyone particularly dislike the idea to have some kind of prize offered up for a good* iOS client?
KevGe0rG: It'd let you poll in the background when receiving a bodyless push to just find the content of that message so you could display a notification.
KevGuus: I do, personally. I think the XSF could better spend its money.
KevOf which it doesn't have muc.
KevOf which it doesn't have much.
GuusKev: on what? I'd love to spend money.
daniel> Ge0rG: It'd let you poll in the background when receiving a bodyless push to just find the content of that message so you could display a notification.
You have to be fast and recover all state from disk
Ge0rGKev: how's that different from an XMPP connection?
danielBut that's it basically
Kevdaniel: I don't think you need to recover anything at all, actually.
KevYou could do the full resync once the client is foregrounded again.
KevOf course, this is much easier if you're willing to have your message content go over Push.
KevBut if you're not, you need some mechanism that can wake the client, have it fetch the message that needs displaying, fetch it, display it, and go back to sleep again without the OS getting angry with you.
danielRight. Yes I see that your approach is valid as well. But I think one has enough time to do a regular sm catchup if we get fast resume
Ge0rGKev: that sounds like you are trying to get rid of the cruft of XMPP session setup by replacing XMPP with HTTP, instead of replacing the session setup
danielAka instant stream resumption and the like
KevI wouldn't even try, I think. To do it over XMPP I'd just have fast reconnect, not fast resume, and then just poll that one item over MAM.
KevAnd leave the fast resume for when the client is woken up by the user.
jonas’Kev, that doesn’t sound too bad
KevGe0rG: Valid point, see above.
jonas’soo… XMPP-over-TLS, SASL2+bind2 to do as much as possible in as few as possible roundtrips, query MAM, close connection?
jonas’(or try to keep connection open if possible)
KevSomething like that, yeah.
alacerhas left

HolgerKev:

Yes that's how it worked with past iOS versions, AFAIK there's no way to do get that behavior these days. Now you need the VoIP label to get silent notifications, i.e. to have your app woken up rather than notifying the user without waking the app.
genofirehas left
KevI stand corrected.
HolgerKev:
> let you poll in the background when receiving a bodyless push
You'd still need that VoIP flag to get that 'bodyless push' in the first place. And how does HTTP vs. XMPP help after being woken up?
KevKeep reading down :)
HolgerI did.
KevIt doesn't, you could do the same over XMPP by having a non-session stream making a MAM request.
HolgerAh ok.
KevAs long as you had XMPP-over-TLS, and immediate setup instead of SASL.
Holgerdidn't grasp that you were still tackling the same point here.
HolgerRight.
Holgerdaniel:
> I think you can create a decent iOS client without VoIP
I dunno how you'd avoid "New message" notifications though.
KevPresumably by sending the content in the push notif, which some people would hate, and others would be quite happy with.
jonas’you can’t do that with OMEMO
HolgerWith a smarter push mechanism we could avoid sending multiple of those, and once the client *is* woken it can attempt to replace that notification (like ChatSecure already does), but that's not reliable.
HolgerKev: Right.
Kevjonas’: OMEMO is why we can't have nice things :)
jonas’no, broken mobile OSes are why we can’t have nice things (in this case)
HolgerYes it would be nice if we could offer a knob to optionally include message contents.
KevI think the "can't send bodyless push" thing might be broken (didn't know about that), but otherwise the whole "suspect in background" thing seems quite sensible to me (also the way Android seems to be going).
daniel> daniel:
> I dunno how you'd avoid "New message" notifications though.
You can replace the content of a message
danielYou get the new message push, catch up with the real one and then replace it
danielBut yes you need to make the push a bit smarter
danielBut that's not rocket science
HolgerKev: Yes, the big difference so far is that Android doesn't restrict silent notifications. But who knows where they're going.
Kevs/suspect/suspend/, obviously.
Holgerdaniel: Right, that's what ChatSecure is doing. But that means in 86,9% of all cases, users see a "new message!" notification.
KevSo what's WhatsApp doing here - registering as a VOIP app so it can receive push notifs?
danielI think the go the replacing route. They just don't have false positives
Holgerdaniel: The ChatSecure app server generates both a 'New message' notification *and* a 'silent' notification. The latter one is unreliable, but *if* it's delivered, the "catch up and replace" thing is attempted. If it's not, there's no way to do that.
HolgerKev, daniel: I would've assumed silent VoIP notifications.
HolgerBut I dunno.
danielBut the new message ones are reliable as well, no?
Kevhttps://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/setting_up_a_remote_notification_server/pushing_updates_to_your_app_silently
Doesn't say anything about needing to be a VOIP app, AFAICT.
HolgerWould be interesting to know what e.g. Signal did before they had VoIP support.
Holgerdaniel: The 'New message' ones are reliable.
HolgerKev: I'll look it up, it was documented somewhere (and it clearly works that way).
efrithas joined
danielSo figure out when a notification should actually trigger a notification, send a reliable one with a dummy body and the modify it to show the actual content
danielI don't see the problem with that
danielYou get 30s to modify it https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/modifying_content_in_newly_delivered_notifications
danielThis only depends on the app server to figure that and then on the client to do the catchup in 30s
danielThat seems achievable
Kevs/catchup/message discovery/
KevYou might do message discovery with catchup, you might employ a different mechanism.
danielWhat ever ☺️
danielWhat ever meachism you deem fit to fetch a specific message within 30s
KevRight.
HolgerAhh, right, "Service App Extension". That's a new thing I think, IIRC Chris mentioned that.
marchas left
HolgerThat would probably do the trick indeed.
KevOk, I've spent a few minutes reading (more than I should, probably), and from what I can tell VOIP pushes will make things better because they're high priority pushes, but shouldn't be necessary for this to work.
HolgerYes yes, I forgot about that thing. Depends on a recent iOS version I think, but apart from that it's probably fine.
marchas joined
danielI mean 30s is actually *a lot *
Holgerhas left
danielI'd be worried if we only had single digit seconds
danielI mean obviously my users hate metrics and an app 'calling home'. But it'd be fun to get some numbers on the median resume and catch up time in Conversations

danielIf you started building a bicycle you might not be able to fix it into a car

SamWhitedIn that case, I feel like xmpp is a bicycle car hybrid where one person keeps taking off bike parts and putting car parts on and one person is doing the opposite and others are just randomly bolting airplane parts on wherever they'll fit.
SamWhited(I missed most context there, but if I interpreted the analogy correctly my point is that I'm starting to think we need a specific mission and set of use cases)

danielSamWhited: I was talking about clients. I think there is some truth to what you are saying in regards to the protocol but I think it's more severe when it comes to specific clients
danielA multi use protocol is not an unfixable problem imho
danielMaybe a hard one
SamWhitedah yah, that applies even better to most clients, assume I was talking about that too
jonas’there is a need for a simple way to refer to another message
jonas’references doesn’t have that use-case
jonas’can we get that specified quickly?
jonas’or alternatively rename Message Attaching, because it’s not being used for attaching apparently
ZashWhat uses it and for what then?

Zashor "How to blockchain using thread/@parent"
lovetoxim not sure about this for quotation
lovetoxbut what it actually solves nicely is the case where i want to convey a url with a message
lovetoxbut i want to encrypt it
lovetoxfor oob and the sorts, full stanza encryption is necessary

lovetoxthis would solve this nicely for omemo

pep."Furthermore, even if 3.4 covered our use case other use cases outside our scope would still have to be implemented in order to be compliant with the whole XEP.", I guess people are also often confused by this.
pep.How many people say they support MUC or Pubsub entirely :)

Nobody expects the Full Stanza Encryption!
Ge0rGZash [20:35]:
> Don't make me submit an <in-reply-to/>
And then rewrite Receipts and LMC on top of it!

goffiDo you know this https://omemo.im/ ? The website looks like an aggregation of publicly available informations, and it claims to be open source but I don't see any source code. Smells like malicious app
lovetoxits not malicious
lovetoxit seems to link for downloads directly to other projects
lovetoxlike gajim, and zom
ZashExcept the Android one
lovetoxyes
lovetoxthats a bit weird
ZashIt links to Conversations in the footer
