I guess the idea is to not update or base on references and instead make a whole new element for this? Given our move away from fastening and other generic base XEPs this is maybe a fine idea.
I think that I've missed the summit discussion on mention because I was sick and left early. Probably some discussions also happened on xsf@ room, but it's hard for me to follow there. So it seems that we are ditching XEP-0372: References, can somebody explain to me the rationale for that? XEP-0372 was already specifying a kind of mention, but not as powerful as the spec proposed here, however I want to understand why we would want to have 2 specs for the same thing. I would love also to have the thoughts of Kevin here, as he is the author of XEP-0372. Thanks, Goffi
