Hi Peter!, Super cool, Peter. I've been developing a bit on Tigase, but mostly on plugins, clustering, multitennant stuff etc. but I think that I'll join anyway! Always a good thing to re-think / update our security model for certificate checking etc. How about spam issues and trust? is that included as well? I think it's becoming a bigger and bigger issue when doing massive/multitennant hosting.
PS: Why are most north-amarican XMPP devs. there? Because of the IETF/WG meeting? /Steffen On May 14, 2013, at 12:33 AM, Peter Saint-Andre <stpe...@stpeter.im> wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > Hey folks, I'm thinking about organizing a one-day XMPP hackathon and > testfest in Berlin on Saturday, July 27, right before IETF 87.
