Topics
Server Certification
 - Levels of Certification?
 - test suite?
 - who does the testing and who does the certifying?
 - certifying may be too "strong" of a term, (semi-)automated interop
testing suggested as better phrasing
 - model after W3C Validator, i.e. a service that anyone can point at
their servers
 - "Verified by XSF", wiki page to be created and populated by next
board meeting
 - two flavours: the verifier software (which could be downloaded and
run locally) and a public interface similar to the W3C and Atom
validators
 - Peter will send out a notice to the broader community
(standards at xmpp.org, jdev at jabber.org, members at xmpp.org, plus blog
post) informing them of this new project once wiki page is populated
 - XMPP Council to verify the Verification Suite and to be arbitrators
of any issues that come from the process
 - goal is to have something functional in time for a concentrated
hackfest / interop event at the next XMPP Summit
