    And yeah extensions could be useful, so we don't have to invent a new bookmark standard each time we want a new feature in there. So we not have an extensible protocol somewhere for that already? ✎

    Extensible Bookmarks (I promise, this time for sure!) aka Bookmarks 4

  5. Zash

    And then Boomarks 5 which is actually Extensible Rosters?

    Yeah, we need to be able to put group chats into groups. Ideally the same groups as contacts!

  7. !XSF_Martin

    I'd like to be able to group groupchats. Or to channel channels or whatever the modern speech calls it…

  8. Kev

    If only we had a place that we could store lists of grouped JIDs.

  9. Kev

    Under 3921, you could even include arbitrary extensions in there, although 6121 removed that (which I thought was a shame).

  10. Ge0rG

    Kev: probably because most implementations can't really handle those anyway, see above.

  11. flow

    Ge0rG, right, Android's xpp3 does not has it, but you could potentially use an xpp3 implementation on Android that has it

  12. Ge0rG

    Yay, bundling more libraries!

  13. flow

    well you could just implement the parser interface with xml roundtrip support in your codebase if you want to avoid bunding more libraries :-P

    I've heard there is an NIH syndrome pandemic going on
