Just pushed a new protoXEP for implementing Remote Control in , along with an accompanying implementation in !

This is exciting, as it enables not only Remote Desktop, but also controlling devices without video feedback - like using your phone as an ad-hoc touchpad, laptop keyboard to control a Single-board computer, or making automation scripts, and more!

It's designed to be extensible, with plans to add clipboard sharing and gamepad input. Thanks to for their support!

🚀 Just pushed the Data Channel Signaling implementation to ! In this case, it features a different workflow compared to usual Jingle File Transfer methods, with separate browser and implementations 💻

It's a great addition, allowing direct P2P file sending (where possible) from any device to any other one (like a CLI/Desktop frontend sending files directly to a remote browser). I look forward to enhancing the UI/UX! 🌐

What would be the essential features that you would expect in a ? I mean features that you actually use at work or in association, or you would very much like to see.

I'm asking to check how far we are in common clients, but don't hesitate to quote features event if they are already present in some clients.

Did you know? 4 times a year, many members of community (not all though) are applying to be member of the XMPP Software Foundation (), and for this they write a small presentation on who they are, what they are working on, and who they work for.

Every year, some of them apply to be member of board for administrative direction, or council, for technical decisions.

You can check public applications to see who are some of the humans behind XMPP: https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Membership_Applications

After , I've now pushed implementation of a output in frontend, which shows A/V call video streams directly into your terminal! It's using or image protocols, or half-blocks (thanks to )

I'm not aware of any other CLI tools doing something similar ( or not). It's not as useful as GUI, but it's quite fun :)

Attached are 2 demo videos of call between Libervia and , on .

I've just pushed the implementation of a GUI for calls in the CLI frontend of

That means that you have a full-featured GUI accessible quickly from your to make or receive your calls. Can also be useful to compensate for clients missing A/V calls.

It works on and and supports desktop sharing.

One of the important thing to understand with and open specifications, is that despite having various projects which may be seen as "concurrents", people working on them collaborate to fix issues together and make the whole ecosystem work as good as possible for everybody. The summit is a vibrant exemple of that.

People are talking about soccer, stadium and mailing list analogy (more or less).

Also it's the end of the day, with a few hours of sleeps, it starts to be difficult to follow :).

I've been late to second day, due to short night. We had fun yesterday walking along the highway, which was occupied by tractors, to go the annual XSF dinner. The first day was really good and interesting.

Now we are talking about synchronizing status of conversations in XMPP (read, archived, etc).

There is a major outage on my server, https://libervia.org, my blog at https://goffi.org , and associated services won't be accessible probably for a few days. My email service is also down, so if you need to contact me, please use XMPP at goffi@jabber.fr for now, thanks!

I'm delighted to announce that has received a new grant from to develop an <=> gateway.

This project will not only convert normal messages but also transform mailing lists into based forums. It includes UI/UX enhancements on Libervia, end-to-end encryption, and advanced handling of attachments.

a 20+ years and , boasts a minimal, well-conceived core feature set. It enables diverse software to intercommunicate without reinventing the wheel. It has evolved over time, maintaining backward compatibility, and allows for low-resource implementations. Suitable for any conceivable use case, it advocates for no indiscriminate resource consumption. XMPP stands as one of the communication protocols most aligned with the challenges of today and tomorrow.

I've just pushed A/V call commands to the frontend of . I believe that it's the only CLI to date with calling capabilities (make and receive calls).

This complete and () implementations.

All thanks to / Assure grant (and hard work!).

Still need some stabilisation work, hopefully will be ready for incoming release.

Just a reminder: it is possible to track you on / because most of your data are public (messages posted, followers and following lists) . I have the feeling that not everybody realise that. We can tell a lot on who you are just with your following list.

Some data are private to your server (IP address, connection time - which can more or less be deducted from your public activity -, devices used), but a lot is public.

edit: like/favourite is semi-private

It's a pity that extensions () are so badly understood and there is so much misinformation on them.

Because the principle is really great: you have an idea, you explain it, and how to implement it, it's discussed, and evolves with feedback. Anybody can do it, you don't even need to be member.

Maybe later, an other idea, or a better version replace it, and it works thanks to the neat discovery mechanism of XMPP.

One of the main reasons why I've stuck with this .

I'm a bit tired to read that Google, FB, or whatever killed :

  • XMPP is not dead, far from it

  • I have a lot to say on Google, but at least they made a major contribution to XMPP and the A/V world in general by co-authoring Jingle

  • what was/is painful to XMPP is the lack of resources, specially for client devs, most of clients are made by very small team (often single person), and most of time on their free time

  • other painful things are ill informed criticisms and mis-informations
