    rion, I am aware of the email you are referring to; I have to think about it.

  105. jonas’

    thanks for reminding me

  106. jonas’

    rion, this has been requested several times, but I haven’t found a good way to implement it yet. Also, this needs a good way for the components to let the server know that their caps have changed. I have wire format for that in the pipeline, but I’m not really happy with it yet.

  107. jonas’

    also, this is mostly server-side stuff then which I’m not at all familiar with

    Is there a way for anything to say "my caps changed"?

  115. jonas’

    for clients, yes

  116. jonas’

    they re-send presence

  117. jonas’

    for anything else, not

  118. andy has left

  119. andy has joined

  120. Zash

    for _anything_

  121. jonas’

    Zash, you’re a server dev. what would you prefer? send an IQ to all your open outbound streams? a nonza to all your open outbound streams? have a pubsub node on the server JID itself to which interested peers can subscribe?

  122. jonas’

    (the latter is then like the first option, except that you need to keep track about who is interested)

  123. Zash

    What's the ultimate goal?

  124. thorsten has left

  125. thorsten has joined

  126. edhelas

    Zash which metadata ?

  127. l has joined

  128. jonas’

    Zash, 1. provide clients with caps of JIDs related to their server (e.g. a MUC component) during connection startup (e.g. via a stream feature or something) 2. provide servers with means of learning their peers caps and keep them up-to-date (this was requested), and possibly broadcast changes of remote caps to interested local clients

  129. Zash

    edhelas: It's a dataform, you can make something up. I'd suggest something with an URI value. Then stick an pubsub URI/L or whatever there.

  130. edhelas

    Zash this will require changes on the XMPP server, no ?

  131. Zash

    jonas’: for 1) it's probably fine for the server to disco#info external components as they connect and stick a caps-hash in the stream features next to its own (needs some origin indicator)

  132. jonas’

    Zash, what do external components do when they change their caps for whatever reason?

  133. Zash

    jonas’: atm? nothing.

  134. jonas’

    no, what are they supposed to do when that happens?

  135. jonas’

    for example, change to an http upload component’s maximum file size

  136. Zash

    jonas’: I guess that's what we need to figure out.

  137. jonas’

    exactly :)

  138. Zash

    So yeah, I guess we want the new caps hash pushed to whoever's interested, probably in some container, most likeley some way to enable it.

  139. Zash

    I do wonder if we need to ditch the current component protocol, since it's without stream features

  140. Zash

    Does it need to be global or local to the stream?

  141. sezuan has left

  142. jonas’

    "it"?

  143. Zash

    jonas’: "caps push" or whatever

  144. jonas’

    what does "global" mean then?

  145. 404.city has joined

  146. jonas’

    in the end, it should be able to propagate across domain boundaries I guess

  147. Zash

    jonas’: do you(r client) want to be subscribed to eg all the MUCs you ever heard of?

  148. jonas’

    probably not

  149. Zash

    or, hm, your server maybe

  150. jonas’

    but those one is joined in might be interested

  151. jonas’

    but those one is joined in might be interesting

  152. Zash

    jonas’: "global" as in something that uses stanzas, as opposed to a nonza-thing

  153. jonas’

    I was thinking of using <message/> actually because messages with unknown payloads cause the least trouble

  154. Zash

    headlines even

  155. jonas’

    yeah... for s2s (and component<->server) that might be good enough

  156. jonas’

    and when done cleverly it can be implemented with a pubsub component. although that gives me flashbacks of Push

  157. Zash

    if it's something clients opt-in to then the payload container shouldn't matter

  158. moparisthebest has left

    > send an IQ to all your open outbound streams? What would be wrong with a roster-push style IQ for changed caps?

  167. jonas’

    Ge0rG, client2s or s2s or component2s?

  168. Zash

    everyone2everyone!!

  169. jonas’

    wfm

  170. Ge0rG

    jonas’: s2s and component2s

  171. Ge0rG

    but yeah, having to disconnect and reconnect in the client is sucky. Also some clients will cache server caps in RAM to not play that dance every single time

  172. jonas’

    on connecting, one could send the caps in stream features for s2s, too

  173. Ge0rG

    jonas’: this doesn't even start to address the caps-change problem

  174. andy has joined

  175. Guus has left

  176. jonas’

    Ge0rG, that’s true, but I don’t get your comment about reconnect

  177. Ge0rG

    jonas’: the solution to update the client-side server-caps hash is to reconnect

  178. Ge0rG

    jonas’: except when it's not

  194. Zash

    Again?

  195. Ge0rG

    Zash: yeah. Apparently last year's council never completed the LC

  196. Ge0rG

    But as the XEP hasn't changed in years, it still sucks and all my arguments from 2016 still are true.

  197. lnj has joined

  200. Ge0rG

    quick poll: should I make XEP-0410 "Informational" instead of "Standards" before Proposing?

  201. Zash

    Is this legal?

  202. jonas’

    Ge0rG, I think switching tracks is a rather undefined thing to do

  203. 404.city has left

  204. Ge0rG

    Ohnoez. So now I need to ask Council for a decision on that, which will hand it over to Board for some serious XEP-0001 yak shaving.

  205. Kev

    410 is Standards.

  206. Ge0rG

    Phew.

  207. Kev

    Wait, I thought there was going to me a disco feature in there, did I dream that?

  208. Zash

    Kev: Do you have a good explanation of why?

  209. Ge0rG

    The only wire protocol it adds is the disco#info tag

  210. jonas’

    that’s probably enough

  211. Ge0rG

    Phew²

  212. Kev

    Zash: Because it introduces a new disco feature.

  213. Kev

    Or I thought it did, but it doesn't seem to.

  214. Ge0rG

    Kev: https://op-co.de/tmp/xep-0410.html

  215. jonas’

    I tend to agree with Kev; it essentially defines a behaviour for IQ ping on MUCs, with feature discovery.

  216. jonas’

    that’s not just Informational IMO

  217. Kev

    Ge0rG: Ah.

  218. jonas’

    Kev, it’s on the TODO, but Ge0rG didn’t want to make changes during LC

  219. Ge0rG

    Kev: PR is https://github.com/xsf/xeps/pull/739 - I'm just preparing it for Council submission

  220. Ge0rG

    Kev: and one of the LC notes was "Informational" or "Standards"

  221. Ge0rG

    jonas’: now that the LC is formally over, I can ask you any time to merge the PR, right? (I'm not doing it yet, though)

  222. jonas’

    I have to read up in '1 on that

  223. jonas’

    the LC isn’t formally over until Council has voted, is it?

  224. Ge0rG

    jonas’: until Council has voted about what exactly?

  225. jonas’

    Advance vs. Reject

  226. Ge0rG

    jonas’: and it will vote that on the XEP version submitted for LC? Regardless of two weeks worth of LC feedback?

  227. Ge0rG

    Or will it Reject and I need to get you to apply the PR and then to re-LC?

  228. efrit has joined

    sorry, I don’t have '1 in front of me

  237. edhelas

    so I'd like your point of view on the experiment that I made to add avatar support in Pubsub, basically the idea is to publish 0084 items directly into the Pubsub node as items, this doesn't requires any changes server side, configuring the notifications without payload is adviced

  238. edhelas

    the only case it's meh is when a getitems is done on the node, then the base64 of the avatar is delivered

  239. edhelas

    on other cases, it's the same system as 0084

  240. jonas’

    edhelas, ugly

  241. edhelas

    you have a notification headline of the urn:xmpp:avatar:metadata item, you request the content, check the id and request the rest

  242. jonas’

    defeats the entire design of '84 with the separate nodes to handle the issue with the large payload

  243. jonas’

    will not work properly with node item count limits

  244. jonas’

    mixes data and metadata in the same "stream"

  245. edhelas

    ok :)

  246. rion has joined

  247. edhelas

    jonas’ what is the issue of mixing different kind of content in the same stream ? we have namespace for that

  248. edhelas

    on my side it's the only solution that I found that doesn't requires big changes server side

  249. edhelas

    and I'll not wait for MIX to have such basic features available

  250. rtq3 has left

  251. rtq3 has joined

  252. Zash

    you could have a node with items for all other nodes

  253. Zash

    you could have an URI/URL in node metadata

  254. edhelas

    this requires to set rights on the other node to publish content and restrict them

  255. edhelas

    only the publishers can publish the avatar

  256. edhelas

    and url/uri is possible yes, still in the mood of 0084 afaik

  259. Nekit has left

  260. Nekit has joined

  261. jonas’

    edhelas, as you mentioned yourself: "the only case it's meh is when a getitems is done on the node, then the base64 of the avatar is delivered"

  262. jonas’

    item counts will be off, too

  263. jonas’

    you have to do additional filtering, interactions with RSM and so on

  264. edhelas

    on my implementation, displaying only 9 items and not 10 on one page is "ok"

  265. edhelas

    but indeed it's not perfect

  266. edhelas

    but RSM with chat message correction can also gives you 28 messages for 30 requested in the end

    "Seve> @board" < I'm happy it doesn't. That's not something that should be in <body/>

  275. Seve

    pep., I don't disagree, but give the feature

  276. Seve

    :D

  277. Kev

    It should be in body, and then there should be a reference to annotate it.

  278. frainz has left

  279. pep.

    The "@" is metadata, and is not required in body

  280. Zash

    You can use it as UI, but then not send it. Like Converse.js

  281. pep.

    yep

  282. pep.

  285. Half-ShotX has left

  286. edhelas

    Zash I'll try out the URL in metadata thing and not publish the base64

  287. pep.

    URI?

  288. Zash

    https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html#impl-uri ?

  289. Half-ShotX has joined

  290. edhelas

    no, example 4 in https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0084.html#process-pubmeta

  291. pep.

    Why http?

  292. edhelas

    where do you want to publish it ?

  293. edhelas

    on another pubsub service ? which one ? the same as where the node is ?

  294. edhelas

    we don't have any kind of filtering feature when ding disco#items on pubsub service, that's also why I moved comments nodes

  295. edhelas

    it is possible but having simple HTTP URL is also fine, this node will only be about pulling data

  296. edhelas

    (in my case Movim can even host it)

  297. pep.

    So we use http "because my client does it anyway" and it's a really ugly hack just because nobody is pushing for "the right thing"(tm)?

  298. edhelas

    0084 allows it, also base64 handling through xml is having limits

  299. edhelas

    i don't have control over the upload process of the picture for example

    if I could take one day off to attend the summit remotely, which should I take? 31st or 1st?

  340. Kev

    Hard to say. I think often the first day discussions are more intense than the second as we prioritise the stuff more people consider important/interesting.

  341. jonas’

    hard trade-off

  342. jonas’

    thursday is burger day at work. I’d be missing good burgers.

  421. ralphm

    And since we're not actually doing them, I'm removing the item.

  422. ralphm

    * Clarify how initiate last call for Exp. XEPs

  423. Guus

    that was in your PR, right?

    It would be nice to get reviews on this.

  427. Guus

    I've read and remember agreeing with it - I'll go over it once more after the meeting and +1 on the PR

  428. Guus

    do we need an in-meeting vote on this?

  429. ralphm

    I put it up for review

  434. ralphm

    It might also be nice to get opinions from the floor

  436. ralphm

    Right

  437. ralphm

    * Update Board status on members page

  438. ralphm

    This sounds like an 'Alex' item.

  439. Ge0rG

    ralphm: might be useful to bring the PR up for Council then. I kind of missed it

  440. Kev

    (I've just had a scan of that PR and have issue with it, FWIW, in places)

  441. ralphm

    Ge0rG: the point is that Board is the Approving Body.

  442. ralphm

    Kev: great, all feedback is welcome

  443. Kev

    Board is the approving body, but I think it'd be irresponsible to make significant changes to the standards process without consulting the body responsible for the standards :)

  444. Kev

    I don't think there's a rush for this, so I suggest getting it put on Council's agenda too.

  445. Guus

    Kev: for what it is worth, I had already mentioned this PR on the standards list a week ago.

  456. Kev

    ralphm: I think it's worth flagging things explicitly on the Council agenda.

  457. ralphm

    Kev: that was the goal already and why we are discussing it. The Council's Chair is invited to Board meetings explicitly for these things.

  458. ralphm

    (and also on the Board mailing list)

  459. ralphm

    Anyway, I trust it will be discussed in the next Council meeting now. Meanwhile comments are also welcome on the PR. Moving on.

    5. JabberSpam trademark application

  494. ralphm

    JabberSPAM actually

  495. Guus

    Ge0rG's response to Peter, did that get a response?

  496. Ge0rG

    Guus: not from Peter, AFAICT

  497. ralphm

    No

  498. ralphm

    The project v.s. organization thing is a bit of a thing.

  499. ralphm

    I can see how having another organization with Jabber in its name might complicate the trademark situation.

  500. ralphm

    And hence why Peter said that might not be a good idea.

  501. Ge0rG

    is "that might not be a good idea" equivalent to the board denying the request?

  502. Ge0rG

    I'm a bit lost here about how to go on.

  503. Guus

    there's precedent for having an org with 'jabber' in it's name, trademarked: https://xmpp.org/about/xsf/jabber-trademark/approved-applications.html

  504. Ge0rG

    I wonder if they paid the 500$ fee.

  505. Ge0rG

    I actually heard once that the fee was never imposed.

  506. Guus

    I can only assume it was, but don't know.

  507. Guus

    as on how to go on: I'd like to get Peters feedback, as he's most knowledgable on this

  508. ralphm

    Well, as Ge0rG said, it might not fit the description of project either. I am struggling with this myself, and have started reading all the documentation linked from https://xmpp.org/about/xsf/jabber-trademark/background.html

  509. Ge0rG

    from a process point of view, it would be great to have this process terminate eventually with an official board response.

  510. Guus

    I've read that - there's nothing conclusive in there that I could find.

  511. Guus

    best I could reason is that George is putting forward two projects, sharing (part of) a name.

  512. Guus

    (the manifesto and the blacklist)

  513. Ge0rG

    Guus: this is a question similar to "does a github organization count as an organization in terms of the trademark licensing agreement"

  514. Guus

    Ge0rG you're right.

  515. ralphm

    https://xmpp.org/about/xsf/jabber-trademark/license-decision-process.html lists the options

  516. APach has left

  517. Guus

    As long as there's no legal representation of the github org ...

  518. vanitasvitae has left

  519. efrit has joined

  520. Guus

    a github organization is not a legal entity, I think.

  521. ralphm

    It also says that the XSF Trademark Committee makes this decision.

  522. Ge0rG

    the XSF Trademark Committee is Board + Peter?

  523. ralphm

    It is comprised of: “a XSF Director and XSF Members who have been authorized by the XSF Board of Directors to manage the trademark licensing program”

  524. ralphm

    The former we don't have

  525. Ge0rG

    And the latter we don't have either

  526. ralphm

    and the latter we may not have explicitly appointed

  527. Guus

    so it's up to board to pick up the slack there.

  528. ralphm

    I think so to.

  529. ralphm

    too

  530. Guus

    let's not complicate things furhter.

  531. Ge0rG

    If I volunteer to the XSF Trademark Committee, will I be put into a position to decide upon my own request?

  532. ralphm

    I tend to have opinions other than Guus and mine.

  533. ralphm

    (on anything in this meeting, really)

  534. ralphm

    want to have, I meant

  535. Guus

    you have other opinions that you? 🙂

  536. Guus

    ah 😃

  537. ralphm

    FWIW, I tend to approve, if we get the details correct.

  538. Seve

    Could that be changed for just Board for example? So we do not have to go though that process

  539. Ge0rG

    I would assume that the XSF Trademark Committee implicitly is the XSF Board.

  540. APach has joined

  541. ralphm

    Seve: I suppose Board could appoint Board to be on the Committee.

  542. frainz has joined

  543. Guus

    Seve, I don't think we have to go to that process to begin with.

  544. equil has joined

  545. ralphm

    But I think Board is clearly authorized if it votes on the matter.

  546. Half-ShotX has left

  547. Half-ShotX has joined

  548. Ge0rG

    I am fully OK with the Board voting on trademark applications.

  549. Ge0rG

    Also deciding on whether to ask for one of the fees.

  550. Half-ShotX has left

  551. Ge0rG

    (personally, I'd love to change the process to not demand any fees from non-commercial entities)

  552. ralphm

    I'm not considering any changes to the process before understanding how it is currently supposed to work.

  553. Guus

    Ge0rG working on the assumption that Peter does not bring up new issues, you change the name on the trademark application to the non-abbreviated name (as you already suggested), and we're licensing to two projects, instead of an organization, I tend to be OK with issuing the trademark. Let's ping Peter, and find out more.

  554. Ge0rG

    Guus: I'm not sure whether my mail counts as "pinging Peter"

  555. Guus

    I'll ask Peter for an update

  556. Ge0rG

    Guus: also one of the open questions was whether the long-name trademark will allow me to use the shortname in URLs

  557. ralphm

    Right

  558. ralphm

    Thanks Guus

  559. Ge0rG

    and that question is kind of blocking for me

  560. ralphm

    I understand.

  561. Ge0rG

    because if the answer is "no", the whole application stops making much sense.

  562. Guus

    I assume it is OK, but would like Peter's feedback on that.

  563. ralphm

    Let's try and get more answers for/during next week at the Summit.

  564. ralphm

  567. ralphm

    I know we have discussed this at length already, but I've been reading our bylaws, and I'm not too comfortable about the vacancy for this officer.

  568. Guus

    what are your concerns?

  569. ralphm

    The point is that the bylaws (and e.g. the trademark policy) explicitly mention this role.

  570. ralphm

    And it is unclear how things should work in the absence of an ED.

  571. Ge0rG

    from the floor, I'd assume that All Of Board needs to make any decisions then.

  572. Half-ShotX has left

  573. Half-ShotX has joined

  574. ralphm

    Right, but I wonder if that should be made explicit. Unfortunately, we didn't really get much feedback on our previous meeting on this topic, either.

  575. ralphm

    The minutes now state: “As of now, Board is executing their decisions themselves. The consensus seems to be that this mode of operation is fine for now, and there is no extreme pressure to find a replacement.”

  576. ralphm

    I think that is aligned with Ge0rG's comment.

  577. Guus

    I'm not to worried about not filling the position, and not change the bylaws either.

  578. ralphm

    Ok

  579. Guus

    if a problem does occur, we'll have to resort to appointing another ED.

  580. Guus

    which will then be problematic, probably.

  581. Guus

    but in effect, the ED has been absent for years.

  582. Guus

    and/or done nothing in that role

  583. Seve

    What problems could be encounter because of that?

  584. Half-ShotX has left

  585. Guus

    it's way past time for me

  586. ralphm

    I cannot currently think of one. So maybe we should leave at this for now.

  587. ralphm

    7. AOB

  588. Seve

    Ok, no problem.

  589. Guus

    I'd like to vote on the ED thing asap

  590. Guus

    it's been dragging

  591. Guus

    AOB: nyco, did you get in touch with that designer friend for the badges?

  592. Ge0rG

    Guus: what exactly would you like to vote on?

  593. Guus

    Ge0rG to keep the position, but vacant.

  594. Ge0rG

    Ah, yeah. The badges. Would be great to have them.

  595. ralphm

    Guus: I'll put the vote on for next meeting.

  596. Guus

    I think it might actually be useful

    I probably should add a cache of the rendered pixel data first though.

    Otherwise rendering the participants list might become slow.

    For those who wonder what Link Mauve's avatar looks like

    pep., cute isn’t it? ^^

  797. Link Mauve

    Zash, jonas’, if you find a nice algorithm rendering finer pixels, I’m all for it.

  798. pep.

    Maybe someday we'll implement MAM in poezio

  799. Link Mauve

    This looks a bit like motion detection in video codecs.

    When we're done with avatars

  802. Link Mauve

    Zash, the issue is about identifying which two colours and which block character to use.

  803. Zash

    Those + for- and background colors gets you 2x2 pixels in one square

  804. moparisthebest

    you could copy whatever gitea does for generating avatars

  805. jonas’

    Link Mauve, with SVG, you have the additional data

  806. jonas’

    you don’t need to do much guess on the pixel data

  807. moparisthebest

    but I find them basically indistinguishable after more than 2 or 3

  808. Link Mauve

    jonas’, not with this renderer though.

  809. jonas’

    Link Mauve, write your own!

  810. Link Mauve

    And we still need to quantize to two colours per actual character.

  811. Link Mauve

    jonas’, no, I won’t write a new SVG renderer. :p

  812. jonas’

    aww

    Link Mauve: so you are back at fixing poezio, after fixing the prosody caching module? ☺️

  816. Link Mauve

    Ge0rG, I didn’t manage to reach anything satisfying there yet.

    Yes, these two characters are perfect to represent Prosody’s logo.

    What more could you possibly need? :)

  824. Link Mauve

    I’m pretty sure most avatars in this MUC won’t render that well. :p

  825. Zash

    That's one character tho. (followed by a space because my terminal is weird)

  826. jonas’

    which one is it?

  827. Zash

    st

  828. jonas’

    the character

  829. Zash

    It doest't like double-wide chars

  830. jonas’

    not the terminal…

  831. jonas’

    I wanna see how it renders in mine

  832. Link Mauve
