XMPP: get your shopping cart ready!

Your guide through the candy store of XMPP extensions

Winfried Tilanus
The eXtensibility of XMPP makes it extremely powerful. But it is easy to get lost in the supermarket of extensions. In this talk I will guide you though the extensions: how to read the labels? How to cook some common recipes? I will also show some exotic but nice ingredients. And last but not least: we will be having some protocol-fun!
The eXtensible Messaging and Presence Protocol, XMPP, has extensibility at its core. It is because of the extensibility that there is a vivid XMPP ecosystem: it is easy to adapt XMPP to new developments and to new use cases. The XMPP Standards Foundation maintains a list of extensions to XMPP. In this talk I will dive into this list of extensions: what kind of extensions are there? What statuses can an extension have? What extensions to use in some common use cases? And I will touch some exotic extensions for use cases you may never have thought about. Oh, and what is the story about these ‘humorous’ extensions, can a protocol be humorous?

For many years, Linphone has been one of the most active free communication software. Originally focused on voice, aditionnal functionalities were rapidly added like video, group chat and presence. All of these communication modes imply privacy. To achieve a good level of privacy, users must be able to ensure that their communications can only be displayed to the receiver of those communications, especially no-one from server infrastructure crossed by the messages shall be in the position of ...

This session will discuss how we can share infrastructure and resources between projects, with the goals of reducing administrative burdens, reducing duplication of effort and increasing interoperability between our solutions. To satisfy user expectations, interoperability is more critical in the field of real-time communications than any other free software eco-system. In particular, we will look at how to share management of an event calendar, Planet sites, repositories, CI for interop testing ...

The love for technology is what binds us and pushes us to keep improving. Though there are a lot of thriving RTC projects, collaboration between them is rare. This results in duplication of efforts, differing standards and lack of interoperability. In this session we will discuss the opportunities that lie in wait for the Free RTC space and how we're trying to tackle some of these issues through the Open VoIP Alliance. NOTE: This is a late addition to the schedule to fill a gap left by a speaker ...
