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

On my way to for the summit, then .

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, devroom (H.1302): Bridging Open Protocols: and Gateway via https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event/fosdem-2024-2857-bridging-open-protocols-xmpp-and-activitypub-gateway-via-libervia/

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

See you there!

Polychrome, to random

needs a client that looks and feels like MSN Messenger.

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@Polychrome @debacle FYI, #Libervia was built from the ground up with multiple frontends in mind. If you want to create your own interface, you can do so in any language/framework you like, focus on the UI/UX and let the backend handle #XMPP and many other things.

I'm stabilizing the front-end API for this release to encourage third-party front-ends.

Trying to set up on to help my father with a computer issue. A few years back, an account in the instant messenger client was enough, because it used a quite clever mechanism to set up a connection. What’s the best way today? GNOME now supports RDP natively, but by default it seems to only support link local connections, not over internet? Do I really need TeamViewer for this?

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@felwert I've tried RustDesk recently, and it works quite well: https://rustdesk.com/

Once installation is done, and you have registered the machine ID, you just have to ask to click on the icon and to dictate the password.

Oh, and for the record, I'm about to implement remote desktop with as part of my current grant (https://nlnet.nl/project/Libervia-AV/).

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@felwert there are public servers by default. You can pay or install your own if performance is not good, but it works out of the box without it.

Self hosting is IMHO for professional or very massive use cases. It should not be a concern in your use case.

With the small tries I did (for casual help as you), it's working really fine out of the box.

@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

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

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

Thanks for the answers. I've actually used mostly Manjaro with Plasma Mobile (as a long term user), but despite an appealing environment, there were some bugs, and it was not yet so usable. Unfortunately, last time I've checked, it was not looking super active on .

My main concern is to have something usable as emergency phone.

mima, to Matrix

I think at this point it's worth thinking about why we need text chats and voice/video calls integrated with each other like what #XMPP (try to), #Matrix, and #Discord do

Why not just go back to #IRC or something like #AIM for text, and something like #Skype for calls like the old days ​:sagume_think:​

@Monal @debacle and Libervia (Web, desktop and CLI, with desktop sharing support, admittedly on dev version, soon to be released).

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@debacle @lispi314 @mima @untsuki actually A/V calls in XMPP are not "always" e2ee as the DTLS-SRTP fingerprint is not encrypted with legacy OMEMO. It is with OMEMO:2 and Stanza Content Encryption support, or for client implementing the non-standard "hack" at https://gist.github.com/iNPUTmice/aa4fc0aeea6ce5fb0e0fe04baca842cd .

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@debacle @lispi314 @mima @untsuki to be more clear, it is indeed "always encrypted", but with the fingerprint in clear and forgeable, MITM attack is doable relatively easily. if OMEMO:2 with SCE or Daniel's hack is used, it should be fine, but not all clients are implementing them.

Ugh. I managed to avoid having covid, until now. 🤒

@guusdk get well soon!

daniel, to random
@daniel@gultsch.social avatar

Is there any XMPP<->Telephony Network transport other than JMP/Soprani.ca that allows me to make calls with Conversations (or any other modern Jingle client)

Soprani.ca seems like a pretty convoluted stack to set up if one wanted to self host.

TBH I don’t even know enough about the problem space to formulate what I’m looking for.
I think I already have a SIP account (comes with my internet at home / but never used it) so I guess I’m just looking for a 'modern Jingle'<->SIP gateway?

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@daniel isn't https://github.com/jitsi/jigasi what you are looking for? Never used it, but I think that it does some kind of SIP/XMPP gateway.

Goffi, to random French
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

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! #Libervia

@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

Server is back, still a few things missing, but the most important is there (notably code repos).

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@smallcircles unrelated, it's a hardware failure.

@steve it should be live streamed, then available later on video, and if you have question you can always ask me here or on our XMPP room at xmpp:libervia@chat.jabberfr.org?join .

dreirik, to fediverse
@dreirik@chaos.social avatar

Wondering why there is no related at - will there be any other related meetup during that time?

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@dreirik It's the RealTime Communications devroom (on saturday) which includes Fediverse (as well as other real time protocols such as XMPP).

foreverastudent, to random
@foreverastudent@fosstodon.org avatar

Any cool cats got some interesting chats I can check out? I wanna explore it, as I heavily overlooked it in favor of Matrix when looking at decentralized chat options.

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@foreverastudent You can check https://search.jabber.network, it lists most rooms with a search bar.

hexaheximal, to Matrix
@hexaheximal@mastodon.social avatar

My issues with , and why I still currently prefer :

  • It's XML everywhere
  • The session-management system is inferior to what matrix has with session ids and security keys
  • The closest you can get to a web client is ConverseJS, which is really underwhelming, especially since it uses bootstrap (the css framework) and doesn't even support dark theme :(
  • XMPP has already fallen of a cliff in terms of popularity, and it's only getting worse, meanwhile matrix is thriving.
Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@aslmx @hexaheximal have you tried ?

Goffi, to email French
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

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.

More at: https://nlnet.nl/project/EmailXMPPgateway/

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@Monal sure, I did in August.

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@jabberati sure ask whatever you want :).

The gateway is finished barring a few bugs, I'm currently preparing a release, that should come hopefully withing 2 weeks.

A few people are using it already.

You don't need to install any Libervia frontend to use it. Instructions are at https://libervia.org/__b/doc/backend/components.html and you may ask for help at XMPP room xmpp:libervia@chat.jabberfr.org?join (I may lag for answering, as I'm really busy with release preparation).

copiepublique, to random French

Bonjour masto 👋

Nous sommes la copie publique : nous regroupons les entreprises qui se sont engagées à verser la redevance copie publique.

La redevance copie publique est une somme d'argent calculée puis versée tous les ans pour financer la production des logiciels libres et des communs numériques

@codelutin et @Nereide se sont alliés, on a besoin de toi ! Rejoins l'alliance !

https://copiepublique.fr

Goffi,
@Goffi@mastodon.social avatar

@copiepublique @codelutin @Nereide C'est brillant comme idée ! Inciter les entreprises à participer à un fond et le redistribuer ensuite. Seul soucis, ça risque de profiter principalement aux projets les plus connus (cf. le XKCD référencé sur la page), mais c'est déjà bien.

Le fait d'organiser ça au lieu de laisser quelques unes le faire dans leur coin, si ça prend et qu'il y a une bonne com, ça peut avoir un bel avenir.
