- The issue at hand is "how to set up a secure connection between
two XMPP clients".
Assume that we do have the ability to set up sessions through a
network of XMPP
servers or by using the same server and need to move from that
channel to a secure
channel - end to end.
Btw, is it really necessary to set up secure connections through
servers? If it is a session, why not IP to IP (peer-too-peer)?
True. The text should be "through a XMPP network". This will include
P2P XMPP sessions using XEP-0174.
Or does is the centralization plague of the internet around servers so
severe that nobody considers direct connections?
big bad conspiracy theory. The servers are out there.
go easy. its just that the usual XMPP connections are c2s, so we
assume the presence of the server most of the time. Nothing against
p2p xmpp, really.
