Last year, I discovered that XEP-0171 contains an error because it has a URN namespace containing the '#' character, despite the fact that the character is discouraged in URNs. I had a discussion about this with the authors of XEP-0171 (who are involved with the only implementation that I know of), and they agreed that this needs to be fixed. In the XMPP Council meeting just now, Ralph Meijer pointed out that this change is backward incompatible so we should modify the version number of the protocol. Unfortunately XEP-0171 was originally published in a brief period of time when we had URN namespaces but not versioning of namespaces. However, I think we can add versioning at this point without too much worry. Therefore I propose that we change the namespaces as follows:
urn:xmpp:langtrans => urn:xmpp:langtrans:1 urn:xmpp:langtrans#items => urn:xmpp:langtrans:items:1 I'd appreciate it if any implementers could post to this list if they have objections. Thanks! Peter -- Peter Saint-Andre https://stpeter.im/
