This issue covers the month of October 2025. The [XMPP Newsletter](https://xmpp.org/categories/newsletter/) is brought to you by the [XSF Communication Team](https://xmpp.org/about/xsf/comm-team/). Just like any other product or project by the XSF, the Newsletter is the result of voluntary work of its members and contributors.

XSF Announcements https://xmpp.org/2025/11/the-xmpp-newsletter-october-2025/#xsf-announcements XMPP and Dutch Healthcare Chat https://xmpp.org/2025/11/the-xmpp-newsletter-october-2025/#xmpp-and-dutch-h… Healthcare messaging must be secure, interoperable, and compliant, yet too often relies on closed consumer platforms. In the Netherlands, the forthcoming NTA 7532 specification aims to provide a national framework for secure, auditable communication between healthcare professionals. To this effect, the XMPP Standards Foundation published the [‘Towards Secure and Interoperable Healthcare Chat’](https://xmpp.org/2025/10/towards-secure-and-interoperable-healthcare… open letter, in order to explain how the XMPP standard offers a proven foundation for NTA 7532, supporting vendor-independent and interoperable messaging. By engaging with initiatives like NTA 7532, the XSF promotes open, privacy-respecting communication technologies and invites collaboration with Dutch healthcare stakeholders and the global XMPP community. XSF Membership https://xmpp.org/2025/11/the-xmpp-newsletter-october-2025/#xsf-membership If you are interested in joining the XMPP Standards Foundation as a member, [please apply before November 23th, 2025, 00:00 UTC](https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Membership_Applications_Q4_2025).

Extensions and specifications https://xmpp.org/2025/11/the-xmpp-newsletter-october-2025/#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/). Communication around Standards and Extensions happens in the [Standards Mailing List](https://mail.jabber.org/postorius/lists/standards.xmpp.org/) ([online archive](https://mail.jabber.org/hyperkitty/list/standards@xmpp.org/)) Proposed https://xmpp.org/2025/11/the-xmpp-newsletter-october-2025/#proposed The XEP development process starts by writing up an idea and submitting it to the [XMPP Editor](https://xmpp.org/about/xsf/editor-team/). Within two weeks, the [Council](https://xmpp.org/about/xmpp-standards-foundation/#council) decides whether to accept this proposal as an Experimental XEP. - [No-reply JIDs](https://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/no-reply-jids.html) - This specification defines a way for JIDs to advertise that they don’t accept incoming chat messages. - [Forums](https://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/forums.html) - This specification describes how to implement XMPP-based discussion forums. - [Jingle Content Category](https://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/jingle-content-category.html) - This specification defines an XMPP extension to negotiate the use of Session Description Protocol (SDP) media- level attribute content as defined by [RFC 4796](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4796) with [Jingle RTP sessions](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0167.html).
