#XMPP a 20+ years #open and #standard #protocol, 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 #ecological challenges of today and tomorrow.

I'm delighted to announce that #Libervia has received a new grant from #NLnet #NGI0 to develop an #email <=> #XMPP gateway.

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

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

• 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

Did you know? 4 times a year, many members of #XMPP community (not all though) are applying to be member of the XMPP Software Foundation (#XSF), 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

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

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 #NLnet for their support!

#askfedi Hi, I haven't followed the progress for a while, which OSes are currently usable on #pinephone (basic call/SMS, terminal, GPS, not crashing too much)? Is #waydroid usable (in particular for #OSMAnd)? Thanks!

It's a pity that #XMPP extensions (#XEP) 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 #XSF 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 #protocol.

Fun fact: XEP-0070 (Verifying HTTP Requests via XMPP) should work with the #Libervia #XMPP <=> #ActivityPub gateway as there is a plain body fallback mechanism. This can be used to authenticate an ActivityPub (such as #Mastodon) user on an HTTP website. So implementing XEP-0070 would work both for XMPP and AP.

I haven't tried, but reading an other thread about authentication made me realize that.

One of the important thing to understand with #XMPP 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.

At the #XMPP summit right now. We are talking about a possible XMPP 2.0.

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

This complete #web and #desktop (#Kivy) implementations.

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

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

On my way to #Brussels for the #XMPP summit, then #FOSDEM .

Ping me here or on xmpp:libervia@chat.jabberfr.org?join if you want to meet.

I'll have 2 talks this week-end:

🗓️ Sat, 11:50, #RTC devroom (H.1302): Bridging Open Protocols: #XMPP and #ActivityPub Gateway via #Libervia https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event/fosdem-2024-2857-bridging-open-protocols-xmpp-and-activitypub-gateway-via-libervia/

🗓️ Sun, 16:30, #Python devroom (UD2.218A): How I've Built a Web Frontend for a Federated Communication Tool with #Brython https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event

See you there!

#Libervia now supports SCRAM-SHA authentication. Previously relying on outdated Twisted #XMPP mechanisms, we experienced incompatibilities with recent servers like #Snikket. This issue is resolved, and Libervia can now operate with up-to-date Snikket instances.

On my way back after a week in #Paris, big thanks to the #OW2con and #PSES teams for having me. Was a pleasure to share about #Libervia and the recordings should be up soon. Until next time! #XMPP #OW2

🚀 Just pushed the #WebRTC Data Channel Signaling implementation to #Libervia! In this case, it features a different workflow compared to usual Jingle File Transfer methods, with separate browser and #GStreamer 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! #NLnet #XMPP #PeerToPeer 🌐

After #GUI, I've now pushed implementation of a #TUI output in #Libervia #CLI frontend, which shows A/V call video streams directly into your terminal! It's using #Kitty or #iTerm2 image protocols, or #Unicode half-blocks (thanks to #termimage)

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

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

Goffi, 3 months ago to random French

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

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

Documentation at https://libervia.org/__b/doc/backend/libervia-cli/call.html

It works on #X11 and #Wayland and supports desktop sharing.

The Mastodon instance my account is on has been down a lot lately. I feared it wouldn't come back up. Perhaps time to get a new account, but where?

Preferably more on the free speech side, but not banned to all hell.

The mastodon.xyz admin has been chill.

zsoltsandor, 16 days ago to fediverse

I like @Mastodon, however I am also flirting with the #XMPP could-have-been, @movim as a platform to discover. If only #Movim had proper #ActivityPub compatibility.
