The XMPP Extensions Editor has received a proposal for
a new XEP.
Title: Gateway Relayed Encryption
Abstract:
This specification describes a mechanism for end-to-end encryption
with gateways that is compatible with third-party networks.
URL: https://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/gateway-relayed-encryption.html
The Council will decide in the next two weeks whether to accept this
proposal as an official XEP.

Hello,
some information on this one :
- I have a working implementation with the email gateway I'm currently working
on.
- I've done minimal specification for OpenPGP and MIME, as I wanted to work on
it during experimental phase if it get accepted. Notably I plan to specify
more the mapping of XMPP data to MIME header, and to specify the signature
with OpenPGP.
- authentication is not handled, that's another issue with gateways which must
be tackled separately. However, I think that it's easier to handle: with a
similar mechanism we can ask the client to do whatever challenge is required.
- if there is interest in this, I hope that we can discuss it at incoming
summit.
Best,
Goffi
