Hello, for those interested in SIP/SIMPLE - XMPP(Jabber/GTalk) interoperability, there is going to be a workshop in Paris for developers in the first week of September. Agenda for openser is to identify a reliable xmpp library that follows latest XMPP specs and offers secure communication (TLS) which can be used to update and enhance the simple-xmpp gateway implementation. In addition, it is a good opportunity to deploy and test it against other implementations. If you have extra ideas for openser sip-xmpp, please write me or, better, join the event and help get it done. Detailed description of the event follows. Best regards, Daniel SIMPLE-XMPP Developer Workshop 2008 SIP/SIMPLE and XMPP share a lot of concepts but they are different in many aspects. Being nowadays the leading open protocols for voice, video, instant messaging and presence, the interconnection between them creates an unified communication environment for users in both sides. The workshop aims to bring together people with large expertise in both protocols, interested in development, testing and deployment of SIP/SIMPLE-XMPP solutions. With a permanent focus on innovation, the participants cover open source projects to private enterprises. You can join the event for free. Date: September 2-5, 2008 Place: INRIA, Paris, France Main organizers: - Philippe Sultan, INRIA - contributor to the XMPP/Jingle support in Asterisk, member of XMPP Standards Foundation - Olle E. Johansson, Edvina - main SIP developer of Asterisk - Daniel-Constantin Mierla, Asipto - co-founder Openser, developer of XMPP/Jabber gateway Goal: - kick up simple-xmpp interoperability Agenda guidelines: - identify common issues of simple-xmpp interoperability - define best-practice solutions and workarounds of delicate issues - coding sessions in existing applications such as Asterisk, Openser, Jabberd, Freeswitch, eJabberd, libraries, client applications, etc. - testing sessions - reports about past experiences and results of the workshop Target participants: - developers of simple-xmpp products - people interested in testing simple-xmpp products - people interested in building simple-xmpp communication environments Cost: - free registration (everybody pays for its traveling and accommodation) Registration: - via e-mail at simple-xmpp(a)asipto.com - please write the motivation to participate and add bullets into agenda if you like to approach new subjects. The organizers reserve the right to select a group of people that will contribute most as this is mainly a workshop to approach issues, test interoperability and design new solutions. - updates about the event are posted at: http://www.asipto.com/index.php/simple-xmpp-developer-workshop-2008/ Size: - up to 20 people As of Jul 15, 2008, participating companies are: - INRIA - http://www.inria.fr - SIP-XMPP interoperability in Asterisk (http://www.asterisk.org) - Edvina - http://www.edvina.net - SIP-XMPP interoperability in Asterisk (http://www.asterisk.org) - AG Projects - http://www.ag-projects.com - MSRP-XMPP Interoperability (http://www.msrprelay.org) - Asipto - http://www.asipto.com - SIP-XMPP interoperability in Openser (http://www.openser.org) General discussions about sip-xmpp can be conducted via mailing list: sip-xmpp [at] xmpp.org http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/sip-xmpp -- Daniel-Constantin Mierla http://www.asipto.com
