XSF Discussion - 2022-11-08

Thanks to badlop and support of wurstsalat most servers have now a rendered overview of their specs: https://xmpp.org/software/servers/ I can just encourage to expand the use of doap files. then we can also think of further steps how to present technologies.

you can also generate your DOAP file by collecting data from other sources, like here: https://github.com/processone/ejabberd/blob/master/tools/generate-doap.sh

oh, that's pretty clever.

might steal that idea.

"Openfire, inspired by ejabberd" :D

Maybe I shouldn't go into marketing.

Sounds like a good M-Link marketing compaign. :)

^^

What "M-Link: Maybe Kev shouldn't go into marketing"? Works for me.

hehe, that too.

Does anyone have a good approach to (container-based) http-file-upload testing? HTTP PUTs are hampered by clients that do not recognize the server's TLS cert, which is annoying to get around.

There is no such thing as a generally-accepted certificate that covers some kind of test domain?

I don't think so

best you can do is make a root CA and import that in your stuff

That was what I was trying to avoid :)

or try to turn off TLS :-)

I wonder if browsers will even accept certain interaction without TLS :)

So metronome just took the prosody icon and changed the colors? https://xmpp.org/software/servers/

Alex:

ah sorry, wrong affiliation

Guus: the browser will happily let you upload files to a domain without https

jcbrand: half af the colors, I think.

jcbrand: and indeed, I just figured that out on myself. Plenty of other / unrelated issues keeping me busy :)

😂

Metronome is a fork of Prosody, right?

Correct.

Guus: this is what my integration tests use: https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert

Thanks moparisthebest, I found that too. So far, the least annoying option, it seems :)

Perfect description

https://xmpp.org/2022/11/the-xmpp-newsletter-october-2022/

I just from this learned of https://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/pubsub-social-feed.html which claims to be a new thing because the microblogging xep is not sufficient -- but appears to be essentially identical to that existing xep?

OT: we have more than 2000 followers on Fosstodon now. 1.5 yrs ago we had about 700-800 I think

emus: did you delete the mastodon posts?

yes 🙂

Thanks to the support of singpolyma the XMPP Newsletter should have acutally been send via mail!!! 📮️ It does not have and DKIM anymore at the moment. Better than a broken-spammy one 🙂 So please see if the lands in your spam folder if not we should be alright!!!

Woooaaa i've got an E-Mail 🥳🥳🥳

😀️ magic

Spam score: 1.25/15! Awesome

hahah, is that good?

It seems that mail send from the mailman mailserver even with From of @xmpp.org gets no DKIM signature at all -- so this should be a small thing that is possible to improve in the mailserver setup without a total overhaul / upgrade or anything like that and then it would be even better

> emus: > hahah, is that good? Yea! 15+ would be rejected. Most of the other mails at my server have a score between 0.5 and 5 :) Last newsletter got a score of 33 :)

LOL

new record!

emus 2292 followers on Twitter, 2090 followers on Mastodon. Break even when? :-)

when more people flee twitter :P

(try saying that quickly 3 times in a row)

What is this "Twitter" people are talking about?

it's that Fediverse ripoff with no federation support to this day, and some AI on top

> some AI on top and I didn't mean Musk

"AI" means there should be intelligence somewhere, so we got that already

mjk: hmm doesn't sound good

right?
