[Standards] Re: Reinstating XHTML-IM (XEP-0071)

Marvin. Respectfully. Please. Read this message, and I be glad to negotiate a solution. I a practical man, and I am not influenced by "hypes" (e.g. JSON, Markdown, and other sort of supposed "easy" nonsense). My message is explicit; and if you deem any writing of mine to be inappropriate, then do inform me, and I will correct myself. About me -------- My name is Schimon Zachary Jehudah. I am a corporate and criminal Attorney at Law and a Notary of over a decade; I hold proven successful cases, against prominent police units, that are exclusively reserved to myself in favour of my clients, unlike 90% of lawyer who do anything that they can to damage their own clients. I have no other formal qualifications other than LL.B. (first degree in legal studies), and if I was living during the 70's, then I probably would not even bother to have an academic certification, just the bar license. My legal niche is "organized civil government conspiracies". My involvement -------------- In recent five years, I have been developing with XML and XSLT, not because I want to, but because I have to; that is, I am invloved, due to necessity. There is a current emergency, and increasing conspiracies against Free Software and Free Communications; Some of these were apparent to me during my work with organizations which I am not allowed to mention; and In recent years, I further notice it, with the new delusional concept of "code of conduct" as a mean to censor people of reason who express against conflict of inerest, social agendas, and other concerns that are meant to destroy stated original intentions of software projects. General request --------------- I ask you, to be most serious and sensible. I will not accept any claim which is unreasonable, such as "because someone else, who is this and that, did so and so". If I was to claim such statements in any court of law, I would be a terrible professional, not to mention that doing so is disgraceful. XHTML ----- With respect, I think that your remarks of XHTML and the mentioned organizations and projects are irrelevant, and also dangerously false. XHTML is a valid form of XML, and the best form of one-file documents. XML is the format which the internet was meant to be. HTML is an invalid form of XML. That whole introduction will be apparent, when you be reading my respond. On Sun, 15 Mar 2026 15:47:29 +0800 "Marvin W. via Standards" &lt;standards(a)xmpp.org&gt; wrote: Please. Be obvious (i.e. "clear", as some say). What do you mean, exactly? What that statement is of? Please explain. I have a reStructuredText document in my computer HDD. Would you criticize me for utilizing reST instead of the lenient Markdown, perhaps? Shoul I be bound to utilize ODT, or RTF, instead of reST, because the head of my synagogue utilizes ODT and RTF? Hostile elements ---------------- Who is to be an authority of XHTML to be good or not? Recently, representatives of that mentioned organization have unfairly tried to silently and subtly neglect XSLT 2.0 and XSLT 3.0 versions, and censored critique comments. Perhaps we should deligate the "authority" of XML to Saxonica. https://github.com/w3ctag/obsoletion/issues/10 The latter organization of the project which you mentioned, is funded by organizations with special interests that are not interested at XML (namely XHTML, XForms, and XSLT), and has a designedly broken XSLT implementation in years, both ECMAScript module and built-in interface. https://openuserjs.org/garage/Why_my_script_doesnt_work_with_Firefox#commen… Considering their obvious conflict of interest, and the benevolent fairy tale of "browser wars" ("star wars" for adults), I trust none of these organizations. Why would you even consider them for even a moment? Are you aware that those who fund these mentioned organizations are not interested in a standard form of internet, other than trying to foist HTML which is patched by ECMA? HTML5 ----- We, lawyers, oftenly state that, "HTML5 is the legally legitimate form of KaZaA". The HTML5 campaign was an obvious and coordibated PsyOp (psychological operation) to distract people from XML and accessible form of internet. Considering the proper design of "Office Suite" software, it is obvious to speculate that IE6 was deliberately badly designed; and AOL deliberately gave away the source code of Netscape to create "Moz" (a multi billion worth organization); and The crimnals of Washington D.C. and the organiations that are currently funding the organizations which you mentioned, have exploited the state of mind of people who were influenced by "Television Programming" such as "star wars" and other insane and imaginary programs to recruit people at their 20's to 40's to actively campaign and paricipate in that "browser war" PsyOp for free. A COORDINATION THAT YIELDED CENTRALIZATION AND DENIED NEW COMPETITION. Since the year of 2005, we could have XML (Atom and XForms) and optionally XSLT and XHTML, instead of the foisted mess of HTML, ECMA, CSS, and HTTP to spy on people. XML is efficient, cheaper, faster, reliable, and more accessible. However, the enormous amount of HTML standards, that are branded as "web", "open web", and "open source", to further masquerade the enormity against (X)HTML, is deliberately high enough to significantly deny the access of new competitors. With over a thousand of so called "web" specifications, the current complexity of so called "web standards" is obscene. The creation of a new internet browser would be comparable in effort to establish worldwide corporation project. Even the organizations which are responsible to the abomination of HTML5 do not properly support their own standards. AN XML BASE INTERNET, WOULD ENABLE MORE COMPETITION AND OPENESS. If a criminal lawyer can realize it, then so should anyone else. https://xslt.rip Law Firms --------- I am working with two of the largest law firms and none of which dares to have HTML nor MHTML neither HTMLZ. Both firms utilize offline versions of XML (DocBook), XHTML; and since one is a criminal law firm which is subjected to police wiretapping, HTML/HTTP browsers are strictly forbidden, as a matter of an internal security policy and privacy to our high profile clients. It be better to have all documents as XHTML, than broken XML (i.e. the gimped version of SGML which is referred to as HTML). If you genuinely think that HTML5 is any good; then, you might want to create a "lenient" version of XMPP; and that whom would be foolish enough to dare to do so to XMPP itself, will cause to the inevitable creation of an XSF compeitor. It is interesting to me, if the intelligence, espionade, secret police, and military, where I live, would be even more stupid to accept the gimped format which is called HTML to be delivered over XMPP, instead of XML and XHTML. NOW, THAT WOULD BE AN IRONY! Would it not? At that time it was innovative. Today, it is obviously acceptable! Please. Do refer to proper references, instead of writing statements that you deem or think to be correct or convenient to you. This has not changed. It is only peer pressure of XSF that caused it. Peer pressure ------------- The fact that some XSF members have pressured developers to remove XHTML does not mean that people (i.e. "users") think that removing XHTML is appropriate. Peer pressure against developers does not mean that developers actually agree, and it certainly does not mean that the people agree. CoyIM ----- CoyIM is a good XMPP client, yet due to internal "frind to friend" discussions, CoyIM is not encouraged due to the lack of OMEMO and encouragement of OTR. To that, I would say, help to CoyIM to create a plugin system, and then create a "third-party" plugin of OMEMO, instead of ignoring CoyIM. Again, peer pressure does not mean that CoyIM is bad; the CoyIM developers are strong enough to express their own opinion. Communications -------------- To add to that argument, I would even accuse XSF for only enabling a single mailing-list which is only meant to discuss of standards, not even of software development (i.e. jdev), so most of the posters are probable to be "buddies" of XSF; and the dismissal of the mailing-list "general" obviously was a setback to have a shared general forum to discuss XMPP of all XMPP software and communities. So, with so few communication hubs, it is easier to create a false sense of contrived consent and manufactured sense of reality and consent, that "most people" "genuinely agree" to remove XHTML-IM. That, of course, is not true. XHTML-IM is useful. Why would anyone want to utilize the gimpd and HTML5? Do you, perhaps, want to incorporate ECMA Script? How would that be sensible? HTML does not belong to XMPP, nor is useful to anything else. HTML5 is a brand which was abused against us to accept: * More spyware of ECMAScript (i.e. JavaScript), including retival of network instrument (5g, 4g, ethernet, wifi); * Useless animated CSS3 which further abuses CPU power, and that harm people of poorer nations; * "Canvas" and video games inside a document viewer when this can and should be managed outside of a textual article; * More elements to uniquely identify computers, including checksums, in addition to "user-agent". This is an obvious conspiracy to create dangerous software that are refered to as (spider) "web browsers"; Do notice that, "internet browsers" that are HTTP clients that only parse HTML; and some deliberately designed to fail to parse XHTML, even though XHTML is cheaper and more effective to parse and create than HTML, obviously. Additionally, protocols FTP and Gopher were removed, the WebExtension system deliberately does not allow TCP/UDP, which means that BitTorrent (Torrent Tornado), IRC (ChatZilla), XMPP (SamePlace), Gopher (Overvite), SSH (FireSSH), FTP (FireFTP) are not possible. There is an obvious attempt to influence people to think that HTTP is the only one form of "the internet". This is done in order to create an unfair advantage. With respect, as I stated earlier, I advise to you, to retract from XMPP and to create your own and new HTML driven platform, if you are tend to consider anything that is encouraged by organizations with obvious conflict of interest. With no offence, that advisory is not facetious. If you do not realize that XMPP is of XML, and that HTML is a lenient and inferior version of XML, and that the organization which you referred to are heavily influenced by people who do not want us to improve, then I do not think that your opinion is productive, at the very least. I ask, again. Why would you? Software developers can easily realize *this string* to be sent as <b>this string</b>. The so called Markdown format is subjected to inconsistencies from one software to another, but that is not the actual issue of this concern. I will ask, again. Did you notice, that the references are of those who recently discouraged XSLT for no good reason? https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/11523 https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/11590 Did you notice that the references are of those who encourage a broken internet; that is, HTML instead XHTML? Did you notice that the references are of those who encourage patched HTML which was referred to as DHTML instead of properly develop XML and XSLT? Did you notice that the references are of those who in fact terrorise the world in favour of unfair data control advantage and profit circle? If we adopt XML and XHTML, then data management is easier, cheaper, and more accessible. My project ---------- I would advise you to explore an XMPP project which I am currently working on, which is entirely based upon XML (Atom, DOAP, Metalink, Sitemap, XBEL, XForms, XSLT, and XHTML). https://nlnet.nl/project/Rivista/ As with XML over XMPP, Rivista Voyager is XML over HTTP and I am even experimenting it over ADC, eDonkey2000, Gnutella2, and MUTE. Additionally, there is no platform-specific HTML so called "templating engine", and the templating-engine is realized by XSLT alone. To me, these would constitute more reasons to consider XHTML over HTML. Post script ----------- Last, but not least. As a a man who honours his statements and roles, I want to state this. If I was an XSF member, not only would I not dare to work for nor with the organizations which you mentioned; but, as an XSF member, I would PROTEST against their apparent treasonous behaviour against humanity, against our privacies, and against our accessibility to information. Best, Schimon
