I'd like to revive https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0080.html maybe

Adding geolocation in Movim would be interesting I think

Maybe add a whitelist on jids that can receive the geolocation (for privacy issues)

does it need reviving? :)

wouldn't be the modern approach be to publish geolocation via pubsub(/pep) and limit the access to the pubsub node for privacy reasons? ✏

Pubsub affiliations?

flow yes, thats my plan for now

That's already what that spec does?

Unfortunate that it uses a NiH xmlns, but probably better to use it than go around again

I'm going to NIH a static site generator

singpolyma, NiH xmlns?

flow: instead of using one of the several geo xmlns that exist, it's one made up just for the xep

singpolyma, are you sure that xep80 does not predate them? :)

also, I am curious about related art, any pointer to such an alternative geo xmlns?

I'd have to dig in to form a good opinion again, but https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geography_Markup_Language comes up in a quick search as an example. Or the related georss stuff

But good point about what predates what, i didn't check deeply in this case
