The XMPP Extensions Editor has received a proposal for
a new XEP.
Title: Data Policy
Abstract:
This document specifies metadata on how an entity handles its data
(encryption, data retention, etc).
URL: https://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/data_policy.html
The Council will decide in the next two weeks whether to accept this
proposal as an official XEP.

Hi,
I'm seeing interest in this specification, I've been contacted to talk about
it. I think that this mailing list is a good location for discussions about it
(archived, publicly visible, and the official place to talk about specs), but I
don't want to spam it either for side discussions.
Would people interested in working on this specification prefer to talk about
it here, or on a groupchat (probably a dedicated one)?
We can also organise a call, but I'm really busy and prefer to write
asynchronously.
Regarding changes, as I've said in previous email, and following discussion
during council, I may use something else than disco extension to retrieve the
data. Let me know if you have suggestion.
I notably think that it could be nice to add a way to get customized output:
for instance if I'm using an email gateway (using IMAP or similar), I may
connect to any server, so the data policy for the service can't be fully
specified. But if a user use it to access a known server (GMail, Hotmail,
Protonmail, etc), we can return a data policy corresponding to this service.
Let me know also if you want to see some other data exposed.
Thanks,
Goffi
