[Standards] certification etc.

[Stephen Pendleton]

Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. I meant that Basic would mean that XMPP CORE,
XMPP IM, and Service Discovery MUST be implemented. My comment about moving
the recommended items up a tier meant that for example the RECOMMENDED items
on the Basic level get removed from the Basic level become REQUIRED elements
on the Intermediate level. That means that for each level there are only
required items, not both recommended and required items.

So Basic 2008 would be:
RFC 3920: XMPP Core REQUIRED 
RFC 3921: XMPP IM REQUIRED 
XEP-0030: Service Discovery REQUIRED 
XEP-0115: Entity Capabilities REQUIRED for clients 

And Intermediate 2008 would be:
Everything in Basic 2008 AND
XEP-0077: In-Band Registration REQUIRED 
XEP-0078: Non-SASL Authentication REQUIRED for servers; NOT RECOMMENDED for
clients 
XEP-0086: Error Condition Mappings REQUIRED
XEP-0073: Basic IM Protocol Suite REQUIRED 
Multi-User Chat REQUIRED 
XHTML-IM  REQUIRED 
File Transfer  REQUIRED 
 

I hope I haven't just confused things.

Thanks

But it's not as if Basic is everything required, Intermediate is 
everything recommended, and Advanced is everything optional. For each 
level, what's defined in the relevant protocol suite will be required.

Or so it seems to me.
