Version 1.28.0 of XEP-0060 (Publish-Subscribe) has been released.
Abstract:
This specification defines an XMPP protocol extension for generic
publish-subscribe functionality. The protocol enables XMPP entities to
create nodes (topics) at a pubsub service and publish information at
those nodes; an event notification (with or without payload) is then
broadcasted to all entities that have subscribed to the node. Pubsub
therefore adheres to the classic Observer design pattern and can serve
as the foundation for a wide variety of applications, including news
feeds, content syndication, rich presence, geolocation, workflow
systems, network management systems, and any other application that
requires event notifications.
