Dear all,
today I looked at the extensions web overview which we have improved in the recent time. Special thanks to Daniel B. again.
https://xmpp.org/extensions/
I would like to enhance the filtering with tags or categories to help developers when implementing the protocol. That way a quick selection of relevant XEPs dependent on the implementation purpose could make onboarding easier. All this may be clear to you, but is not to others and interest third parties. Currently they get a numbered list, but no focus or priority nor importance.
For example, one could filter for the latest compliance suite and its relevant XEPs. Or which are important around A/V implementation. Which XEPs are part of base and advanced implementation? Which is related
And maybe you have many more better ideas to help and guide people.
Theoretically, we have the solution already: Using tags. However, only one of the XEPs has tags so far:
https://github.com/xsf/xeps/blob/master/xep-0488.xml#L25
So, if you agree and maybe also have ideas and/or suggestions I would call to update the most relevant XEPs.
If we have more tags we can also offer them as filter selections right away.
Let me know what you think.
Eddie

Dear all,
Regarding what is in the subject, I reproduced below the entire thread of emails exchanged with the Board members related to my proposal regarding the presence of XSF in Europe.
Each email is a block with a line separating one from the others.
All the best,
Nicola
***
Dear all,
Following our last Board meeting, I propose to discuss the organization of XSF's activities further to promote the XMPP protocol at every level, including at European institutions, possibly by participating in projects to obtain contributions and funding (I have some ideas, but I will explain later).
Each Board member's input is crucial.
I encourage everyone to outline a few items as our agenda for the next 6/12 months.
These points should be related to programmatic and organizational business only (non-technical), reflecting your unique perspectives and expertise.
In that way, everyone can be in the running for one or more items to deal with and what goal we (XSF) want to achieve following our program.
Hence, feel free to share your thoughts about the programmatic and organizational business, and then we can discuss them.
Apart from programmatic and organizational business, the first step is the proposal concerns amending the statutes of the registered office. That modification is necessary to access the European institutions. Other modification proposals are welcome, and we can evaluate all of them.
Otherwise, an amended version (in bold italic) of Article 1 follows.
### ARTICLE I: Offices
**Section 1.1 Registered Office and Registered Agent.** The address of the initial registered office of The XMPP Standards Foundation (the “Corporation”) in the State of Delaware and the name of the initial registered agent of the Corporation at such address are set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate”). The Corporation may, from time to time, designate a different address as its registered office or a different person as its registered agent, or both; provided, however, that such designation shall become effective upon the filing of a statement of such change with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware as is required by law.
***Section 1.2 Principal Offices.*** The principal offices of the Corporation shall be at 1899 Wynkoop Street, Denver, Colorado 80202, ***and at xxxx, xxx, Europe,*** or at such other place as the Board of Directors shall designate from time to time. The business of the Corporation shall be transacted from the principal ***offices***, and the records of the Corporation shall be kept there. ***Both principal offices have legal effect, irrespective of where the activities are carried out and where they are intended***.
**Section 1.3 Other Offices.** The Corporation shall have such offices either within or outside the State of Delaware and within or outside the United States, as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine or as the business of the Corporation may require. In the event the Corporation desires to qualify to do business in one or more states other than Delaware, the Corporation shall designate the location of the registered office in each such state and designate the registered agent for service of process at such address in the manner provided by the law of the state in which the corporation elects to be qualified.

Dear Eddie,
Thank you for your email.
I highlight that my email follows what I said during the Summit in Bruxelles.
My intervention represents a proposal submitted to the Board, which must be discussed and voted on.

I thought it would be appropriate or helpful to try to be more proactive in Europe.
This also involves ensuring that XSF has a European presence and is ready with an action plan and agenda.

From my perspective, the legal aspects are mainly concerned with amending the bylaws to provide for a seat in Europe and the existence of a program, i.e., what XSF proposes to do to promote XMPP.
There shouldn't be any conflict because these are purely organizational activities.
I think that Board members should continue performing the same current activities in compliance with the bylaws, such as providing information, communicating, providing support where necessary, plus implementing programs.
It's important to note that XSF, as a foundation, must act respecting the bylaws, make proposals, and realize projects (if they exist).
We should not expect more.
However, XSF has the potential to form partnerships with companies that have plans to present projects on a European level.
> If we create a new legal instance, can we create the instance on an "Europe level" or would the instance exist in a distinct EU country? If so, which country?
The current bylaws already provide the possibility of setting up other locations.
We should only add a European XSF legal office (any Member State) so anyone can see this in the bylaws themselves.
> My question to Board would be: As I am in all favor for this attempt, and also in favor to put work and time into it, are you as well in favor? Or are you not, and what does not meant to you? My basic question is that I don't want to spent time fighting something that is actually not of interest by a majority in the Board or the XSF organization. Please kindly review this for yourself, too.
I reiterate that my intervention is only a proposal that the Board discusses and votes on.
Therefore, I await the replies of others.

Not only that, but the intention is to create a European positioning to evaluate any possible initiative. XSF's official headquarters in the US could be a distraction. From my point of view, an official presence in Europe would facilitate involvement in possible partnerships and more attention from the institutions (the European digital strategy is strongly focused on an internal market). That is my idea, and I hope to be right.

That may not be the case, but as I said, presence in Europe would facilitate access to possible resources.

I am not an accountant, so I am answering from my experience. Since XSF is a Foundation, contributions should not be taxed, especially if they come from institutional sources (participation in any EU projects). It may be necessary, with an office in Europe, to apply for a tax code or VAT number, but this should be asked of an accountant.
> (4) What is needed in order to establish such a presence or co-domicile? Do we need an office / physical address, or merely a mailing address?
The bylaws should be changed to provide for a seat in Europe with a postal address of any kind.
> (5) Should we perhaps consider moving the organization to Europe entirely instead of having some presence in the USA and some in a European country?
I propose to amend the bylaws, and I note two possible solutions:
1. change the registered office from the US to Europe and then have only one office in the EU;
2. Add - as provided for in the statute - a seat in the EU that is as official as the one in the USA; this second solution, legally, seems less valid to me.
It always depends on what one wants to do, i.e., what projects are to be realized and what XSF intends to do.

I agree, but XSF's identity and the goals it wants or would like to achieve need clarification. Therefore, an organizational, administrative (not technical) program is needed.

For example: most of the XSF's and the community's activity (Summits, FOSDEM, major open-source projects and companies) is in Europe, not North America. So that might be worth discussing anyway.
I agree, and this is one of the reasons why I made my proposal.
We are in no hurry. We can discuss it together, but we must evaluate it soon. Otherwise, XSF remains isolated from the rest of the business world, with a role relegated solely to technical aspects. XSF deserves more.
All the best,
Nicola

With a few rare exceptions, the XSF hasn't even actively supported (e.g., with monetary grants) the projects and companies that develop XMPP-compatible software. In large part, this is a legacy of the XSF's place in the Jabber/XMPP ecosystem and its founding as a neutral organization that would not favor any particular vendor or developer, or even favor open-source software over proprietary software. It is also consistent with the nature of our community, which consists of technically-minded people who don't know much about things like marketing or government policy.

Peter,
My meaning was that XSF—as a foundation—even though it was born in a technical context and is dedicated to XEP, could also organize public events, do dissemination, participate in competitions to obtain public or private funding, be proactive in the communication and dissemination of XMPP, etc.
I did not mean that XSF does not carry out activities but that these could extend.
From my point of view, I see more opportunities in Europe than in the rest of the world.

Dear all,
we have successfully signed-up at Outreachy as community:
https://www.outreachy.org/communities/cfp/xmpp-extensible-messaging-and-pre…
We are slowly getting familiar with the program which differs in several
parts from e.g. Google Summer of Code.
With the support of JMP.chat we have also a funding for one project.
This allows us to apply for Outreachy funding as well.
So, by this message I invite to sign-up with project ideas on our
Outreachy page. Please read the guidelines before you are engaging in
this and make yourself familiar with the program:
https://www.outreachy.org/mentor/#mentor
If you have questions feel free to reach out and I will try to answer
for you.
Other then that, the Google Summer of Code 2024 application is pending
and you can engage in this program, too.
Best regards,
Eddie
