    jcbrand: what are your plans for 425 moderation? Are you going to remove the usage of the 'retraced' element or are you going to keep it but just not in way that is compatible with 424 for the receiver?

    Hmm.. Is it allowed for IQ stanzas of type 'error' to contain child elements other than the child element from the associated request, and an `error` element?

  304. jonas’

    no

  305. jonas’

    IQs are rather strict in that way

  306. jgart has left

  307. jcbrand

    Daniel: I plan on incorporating the feedback soon. I'm a bit behind at work and need to focus on other things first. I lean towards the latter. Keeping the `retracted` element. I also think I'm going to put the `retracted` element back inside the `moderated` element. The reason being that I still believe moderation can be more general purpose than just retractions. For example in some cases one might want to allow moderators to edit messages, then you'd put a `replace` element inside `moderated` instead of `retracted`.

  308. stp has joined

  309. LNJ has left

  310. jcbrand

    Or perhaps like the Twitter feature where they allow community-generated explanations/context to be added to certain controversial tweets.

  311. jcbrand

    You could perhaps attach something like that to a message.

  312. jcbrand

    Although I'm not sure that's a moderation use-case

  313. Daniel

    Retracted inside moderated sounds better to me than the other way round

  314. jcbrand

    Yes, I agree. I switched it around because I though (based on feedback) that we could get XEP-0424 support like that

  315. LNJ has joined

  316. atomicwatch has joined

  317. atomicwatch has left

  318. jcbrand

    Yes, I agree. I switched it around because I though (based on feedback) that we could get XEP-0424 compatibility like that

  319. jcbrand

    I no longer think trying to get XEP-424 compatibility is desirable

  320. jcbrand

    And doesn't look like it's feasible either

  321. Daniel

    OK. Yes I agree. And no rush. I just wanted to clarify that this PR is still being worked upon because I think the editor almost merged it yesterday

  322. Daniel

    Maybe put a draft label on it?

  323. jcbrand

    Well it has a `needs council` badge I see, although I don't think that's necessary since it's experimental

  324. Daniel

    It's not Experimental it's proposed. But council will vote on getting it back to experimental today

  325. jcbrand

    ok

  326. Daniel

    But after our vote today editor _could_ merge it hence the suggestion of flagging it as draft or something

  327. jcbrand

    Maybe I can make the changes today already but I don't want to promise it now

  328. jcbrand

    Yeah I marked both my PRs as draft now

  329. Kev

    If I've not screwed up too badly, my triage wrapper script should ignore draft PRs, so thanks.

  330. jcbrand

    Kev: If it's not like that already, I'd suggest that you also don't automatically merge PRs with unresolved threads.

  331. jcbrand

    Might mean that people need to be nagged to resolve their threads, but it prevents something that's still being discussed from being merged

  343. Link Mauve

    I think it was here that we talked about moderation and stuff; a reasonable improvement to clients would be to automatically hide all previous messages sent by a banned participant, while still letting the user display the messages somehow if they want to know the reason of the ban after the fact.

  344. Link Mauve

    Perhaps we should draft a new modernxmpp page about moderation workflows?

  345. *IM* has left

  346. Daniel

    I don't think all banning should lead to messages not showing

  347. Daniel

    Moderation and banning are two separate things

  348. qy has left

  349. Link Mauve

    Daniel, the only case I remember for users being banned without having sent bad messages were when they reconnect in loop and flood a room with presences.

  350. Link Mauve

    And in this case they get unbanned after they’ve fixed their setup.

  351. Link Mauve

    We don’t have any event for unbanning someone though. :/

  352. qy has joined

  353. Link Mauve

    In every other case, the ban was in direct reaction to something they sent, so requiring a click to display the messages seems ok to me.

  495. jonas’

    ralphm, I'm fairly certain that 75 baud is not sufficient anymore for the amount of MUCs Link Mauve is in.

  496. Link Mauve

    People don’t write that much actually. :p

  497. jonas’

    Link Mauve, chat states, presence.

  498. Link Mauve

    This would all eventually balance, during night time for instance.

  499. jonas’

    you sure about that? 75 baud is really not a lot

  500. paul has joined

  501. Link Mauve

    I have disabled systemd’s bandwidth accountance so I don’t have data any more. :(

  502. jonas’

    the text-only content of programming@ since 2018 is approximately 0.079 bytes/second

  503. nuron has joined

  504. jonas’

    (a bit less, because this includes the full timestamp, which is generally not included in messages)

  505. jonas’

    so 75 baud, with *only* text, would suffice for approximately 1000 MUCs

Side-note about EXI: It’s ment for resource contrained networks, and is estimated to compress XML approx. 7 times more efficiently than LZW. Can be combined with UDP transport and DTLS, and thus create interesting alternatives to the more thightly coupled CoAP and LWM2M protocols. (Also permit huge amounts of connected resource-constrained devices to the same machine, as UDP & DTLS do not require socket connections.)

    But I still have a few things to fix in the kernel before I can use it properly, for instance hardware AES-CBC-128 support is still not merged in the kernel.

    Hi, I wanted to discuss if we should consider Google Season of Docs for writing XEPs? https://developers.google.com/season-of-docs/docs/get-started?hl=en

  584. Kev

    I've pondered it in the past, but came to the conclusion that we're not in a position we could provide a sensible framework for it for XEPs. More likely would be providing user docs for individual projects, I think. (Others may disagree)

  585. Peter Waher

    Daniel: Yes, we have experience with XMPP & EXI.

  586. emus

    Kev: So you believe it only works for software?

  587. Peter Waher

    Jonas: Not that i’m aware. I personally work with a commercial broker and libraries, in C#.

    > : So you believe it only works for software? No, I don't think that's true. I don't think the XSF is is a position that it could sensibly support work on XEPs under that program - but I accept others might disagree. I think that the amount of domain-specific knowledge needed to work on XEPs in a non-trivial way is more than one would reasonably be aquired for the program.

  604. Kev

    I meant XMPP domain knowledge, rather than writing knowledge - but I'm happy to accept that I'm being pessimistic about it if someone else can make it work :)

    Hmm not sure if I understand your concern. Maybe elaborate where the idea does not conform with us? > Google Season of Docs supports documentation in open source by: > Providing funds to open source organizations to use for documentation projects > Providing guides and support for open source organizations to help them understand their documentation needs > Collecting data from open source organizations to better understand documentation impact > Publishing case studies from open source organizations to share best practices > Google Season of Docs seeks to empower open source organizations to understand their documentation needs, to create documentation to fill those needs, to measure the effect and impact of their documentation, and, in the spirit of open source, share what they've learned to help guide other projects. Google Season of Docs seeks to bring more technical writers into open source through funding their work with open source projects and organizations.

  612. emus

    I see development of xeps also as a project or a type of documentation personally

  613. Skull Fucker has left

    and btw, in google summer of code we may get 500-1500$ - in GSoD its 5.000-10.000$ - but I hope this is see as a positive side effect, not the intention^^

    Do you have technical writing skills and experience? Google Season of Docs is not intended to teach basic technical writing skills. Are you self-motivated and organized? Do you have time to participate during the six months of the program? Project sizes vary, but range from a commitment of 5-30 hours per week during the program. Are you interested in gaining experience working in open source? Are you willing to devote time to learning a project’s processes and community norms? Are you willing to work with the organization administrator to refine their project proposals, develop timelines, assess and compile metrics, and help the organization as a whole understand the value of technical writing?

    Getting someone to write XEPs because they get paid to write documents, would require to describe a bunch of features we do want and teaching them all about XMPP, or something like that.

I remember there were 6-8 tech topics at the wall at the summit - Is anyone out there being capable to do without requirement to do so or was planned anyway? I mean, how many development things do we have in the pipeline? If we have absolutely no clue we might use the same track to study and outline this as GSoD seem to pay also for evaluation studies 😃 (Besides when people write xeps in their spare time why not use this chance when other got paid for it via their employer?)

    Definitely will, if nobody else gets there first.

    Thanks!

  1115. Fishbowler

    Is that the right place for "Service Providers"?

  1116. Zash

    I think that section is just gone now

  1117. Fishbowler

    It's more "if you're a service provider, you might get work here" :)

  1118. Zash

    xmpp.work recently changed hands and got some updates

  1119. Zash

    IIRC it was like listing XMPP consultants (like me!) and similar service providers
