XSF Discussion - 2023-08-24

probably a silly question what's the point of https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0371.html over https://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/jingle-sdp.html ? The contents of <jingle ...> are apparently just a different, xml-based syntax for sdp with no added value? Even the xep itself lists the original sdp syntax equvalences. So what's the point of coming up with this new xml syntax?

to make it native and easier to parse without an sdp parser? of course if one if using libwebrtc this doesn't help, but for some stacks it can

If we were designing from scratch today I'm not sure if we'd just give up and use sdp or not, but certainly at the time libwebrtc was just a glimmer in no one's eye

Makes sense, thanks

A reminder that we have our member meeting today. If you have not voted yet on the applicants then please take some time and talk to Memberbot. Thanks

Alex, thanks for the reminder, done!

👍

Could memberbot send a reminder maybe to members that haven't voted yet? Like a month before, a week before, a day before

It's open source, so sure ;)

If that was a nudge for me to do it, I'm not a member anymore and I have no interest in becoming one again :P ✏

I don't see how that's a blocker

whatever

I'm working with a library which I need to feed sdp strings is there like some test suite somewhere perhaps that I could use to ensure the correctness of my translation from https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0371.html to the sdp format?

I am preparing for our member meeting. Will be ready shortly

🤝️

okay

here is our agenda for today: https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Meeting-Minutes-2023-08-24

1) Call for Quorum

as you can see 40 members voted via proxy, so we have a quorum

2) Items Subject to a Vote

New and Returning member, you can see all applications here: https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Membership_Applications_Q3_2023

3) Opportunity for XSF Members to Vote in the Meeting

any members here who have not voted yet and want to do so now? Memberbot is still online for this

OK, none

then I will shutdown the bot and start working on the results

4) Announcement of Voting Results

when you reload the page at: https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Meeting-Minutes-2023-08-24#Announcement_of_Voting_Results you can see the results

all applicants and reappliers were accepted. Congrats to everyone and welcome to Trevor to the XSF

Hi Alex, thanks as always for managing the XSF’s elections!!! I really appreciate it.

👍️

5) Any Other Business?

looks like there is none

Nope. :-)

6) Formal Adjournment

I motion that we adjourn

seconded

thanks

stpeter: is webUI for mailman up again?

Thank you Alex! Also thank you everyone that took time for voting 🙂

otherwise I may need you help for the 2 changes to the list

Thanks Alex, welcome Trevor. :)

Thank you 🎉

Alex: not yet! But I can make changes at the command line.

Send me an email about and I will complete the task today or tomorrow.

great, should I send an email?

but they are visible here: + Trevor - Yvo

OK. What is Yvo’s email address?

I found it at https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Yvo_Meeres_Application_2022

ya, probably the one listed there

in the webUI I always add names as well which helps with searching people

Right. I can do that from the command line, too.
