When uploading a file to a server you don't need NAT traversal. > Anyway, if the HTTP XEP is published I'll implement it anyway, I just hope > it will not have bad side effects on jingle adoption I get the feeling that this is what a lot of people are afraid of. I said this before and I can't stress this enough. HTTP File Upload is not meant to replace Jingle FT (and _especially_not_ Jingle since Jingle is so much more than Jingle FT). I spend a lof of time in the last couple of days reading Jingle related XEPs. It is in fact a great stack. And we will definitely need it Jingle in the near future in regards to Voip. (And once you got a proper jingle stack for voice. doing jingle ft is not a big step) One thing that would benefit Jingle FT much more than 'preventing' this XEP from getting accepted is to finally deprecate SI file transfer.
