[Council] meeting minutes, 2007-02-14

[Peter Saint-Andre]

Chris, what say you? The XMPP Extensions Editor would like to update the 
published specs on the website if they are acceptable. :-)

> 1. XEP-0185: Dialback Key Generation and Validation
> 
> All Council members are now +1, but is version 0.4 acceptable? (Earlier 
> votes were on version 0.3.)
> 
> Council discussed security considerations. Agreement to advance 0.4 to 
> Active and call out the recommended algorithm for IETF review of 
> rfc3920bis.
> 
> 2. XEP-0178: Best Practices for Use of SASL EXTERNAL

> All Council members in attendance voted +1. Chris to vote on the list.
> 
> 3. XEP-0073: Basic IM Protocol Suite
> 
> Approve version 1.1?
> 
> Discussed implications for compliance testing and certification. 
> Consensus to discuss that topic further at upcoming FOSDEM / devcon 
> meeting in Brussels. Peter noted that the protocol suites are merely 
> guidelines for developers to set priorities on their projects, not 
> formal compliance specifications. Ian raised the question of updating 
> XEP-0077 (In-Band Registration) before proceeding with updates to 
> XEP-0073, but consensus that any changes to XEP-0077 are separate from 
> consideration of XEP-0073. All Council members in attendance voted +1 on 
> XEP-0073 version 1.1. Chris to vote on the list. Council will hold 
> discussion in Brussels to address broader topic of certification.

> 4. XEP-0030: Service Discovery
> 
> Approve version 2.3?

> 5. XEP-0092: Software Version
> 
> Approve version 1.1 as Standards Track + Draft?
> 
> Discussed use of iq:version in cases where entity capabilities does not 
> provide the desired information. Real-time wordsmithing resulted in 
> addition of the following sentence: "The jabber:iq:version protocol MAY 
> also be used to determine information available only via 
> jabber:iq:version (e.g., operating system information) for contacts from 
> which a user receives presence, but only if the user specifically 
> requests such information for a particular contact." All Council members 
> in attendance voted +1 with the wording change. Chris to vote on the list.
