Include contact information for XSF Members on the website

by Guus der Kinderen

Dear XSF members, The xmpp.org website describes the organisation of the XSF, including its members and their roles. One of the key purposes of the website is to help interested individuals and organisations get in touch with people involved in XMPP. Where we list XSF members on the website, we should include appropriate contact information (such as email addresses, XMPP handles) to make it easier for visitors to reach out to them directly (more importantly for people that serve on bodies like Board and Council) Providing contact details would: - Improve accessibility and communication within the XMPP community. - Encourage collaboration and engagement with developers, contributors, and newcomers. - Align with the XSF’s goal of openness and community-driven development. We have already recorded JIDs for all members on the website. I suggest that we add email addresses for people that are interested in having their contact details published, and think of some kind of opt-in mechanism. An implementation of this is in the works at https://github.com/xsf/xmpp.org/issues/1572 which contains a mock up of a possible realisation. What do you think? Kind regards, Guus

XMPP Summit 28 (We have a date!)

by Daniel Gultsch

Hi all, We have a date for FOSDEM 2026: January 31st to February 1st This means we also have a date for Summit 28: January 29th - January 30th As the person who has (co)organized the last two summits I would like to start a discussion on the next summit by asking a few questions and floating some ideas. • How did you like the format of the last three summits? (Renting a conference room in a hotel with lunch provided (in buffet style) by the hotel) • Do you have a concrete lead for some company or organization that could provide us with a conference room for free in the city of Brussels? I’m not asking for vague suggestions like "maybe someone could try to reach out to xyz" I’m asking if you personally know someone who has a key to a room. • Do we want a 1 day or 2 day summit? Last year the 'official' part of the summit was over after 1.2 days and had we known this we could have probably managed to squeeze it all into one day. • If we do a repeat of the last two (three) years (which i feel is somewhat likely due to how difficult it is to find places that would have us for free and because I’m under the impression that people like the "fancy environment" with the snacks and the fancy bottles of water) I feel somewhat strongly that we should switch to a model in which every participant pays for their own seat (at per cost) and add a fairly generous fee-waiver on top of it. I’m very much in favor of keeping the Summit accessible. (Socio)economicly speaking our community is very diverse. We have people in our community who would not be able to come if they had to pay the ~250 Euro the hotel charges us per person. But we also have people in our community to whom this is a rounding error in the overall travel+accommodation cost. (I have personally been on both sides of this.) The XSF notoriously doesn’t have a lot of money and efforts to change this over the last 3 years haven’t been very successful. Switching to a fee waiver model would allow board (or whoever) to set aside a fixed amount and send x (where x=10 for example) applicants to the summit for free. cheers Daniel

"Chat Control" EU project and impact on XMPP community ?

by Mickaël Rémond

Hello, I have been recently reading about the "Chat Control" EU project. For those interested, Tuta has a nice summary: https://tuta.com/blog/chat-control-criticism Reading the project, I have been surprised to see it could have deep consequences, not only for big messaging players, but for any chat hosting providers. The idea is that all providers should be able to monitor and report traffic defined as prohibited by the state Coordinating Authority. Providers list include hosting service, interpersonal communications services, for example. I did not see any exemption in terms of platform sizes so I assume it could have a serious impact on XMPP server hosting. I do not even see how it can be applied to an open protocol, given that you can connect to a server with any compliant client, we would have no way to enforce a backdoor for message scanning. Have there been some discussion on that topic at the XSF ? Is it really as catastrophic as it looks ? And if so, what should we do as members or as XSF ? Thanks ! -- Mickaël Rémond
