https://xmpp.org/2024/11/the-xmpp-newsletter-october-2024/#extensions-and-s…
The XMPP Standards Foundation develops extensions to XMPP in its [XEP
series](https://xmpp.org/extensions/)
in addition to [XMPP
RFCs](https://xmpp.org/rfcs/)
. Developers and other standards experts from around the world collaborate on these extensions, developing new specifications for emerging practices, and refining existing ways of doing things. Proposed by anybody, the particularly successful ones end up as Final or Active - depending on their type - while others are carefully archived as Deferred. This life cycle is described in [
XEP-0001](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0001.html)
, which contains the formal and canonical definitions for the types, states, and processes. [Read more about the standards
process](https://xmpp.org/about/standards-process.html)
. Communication around Standards and Extensions happens in the [Standards Mailing
List](https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards)
([online
archive](https://mail.jabber.org/pipermail/standards/)
). Proposed
https://xmpp.org/2024/11/the-xmpp-newsletter-october-2024/#proposed
The XEP development process starts by writing up an idea and submitting it to the XMPP Editor. Within two weeks, the Council decides whether to accept this proposal as an Experimental XEP. - [Pubsub Node

https://xmpp.org/2024/11/the-xmpp-newsletter-october-2024/#last-call
Last calls are issued once everyone seems satisfied with the current XEP status. After the Council decides whether the XEP seems ready, the XMPP Editor issues a Last Call for comments. The feedback gathered during the Last Call can help improve the XEP before returning it to the Council for advancement to Stable. - [
