  <title>User Tune</title>
  <abstract>This specification defines a payload format for communicating information about music to which a user is listening, including the title, track number, collection, performer, composer, length, and user rating. The payload format is typically transported using the personal eventing protocol, a profile of XMPP publish-subscribe specified in XEP-0163.</abstract>

<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='intro'>
  <p>This document defines a protocol for communicating information about the music to which a user is listening. Such information may be seen as a kind of "extended presence", and users may want to communicate such information to their contacts on the network as a fun add-on to traditional IM applications or to provide integration with common music-player applications.</p>
</section1>
<section1 topic='Protocol' anchor='protocol'>
  <section2 topic='Container Element and Child Elements' anchor='protocol-elements'>
    <p>Information about tunes is provided by the user and propagated on the network by the user's client. The information container for tune data is a &lt;tune/&gt; element that is qualified by the 'http://jabber.org/protocol/tune' namespace. The tune information itself is provided as the XML character data of the following children of the &lt;tune/&gt; element:</p>
    <table caption='Child Elements'>
      <tr>
        <th>Element</th>
        <th>Description</th>

      <tr>
        <td>artist</td>
        <td>The artist or performer of the song or piece</td>
        <td>Yes</td>
        <td>xs:string</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>length</td>
        <td>The duration of the song or piece in seconds</td>

        <td>xs:unsignedShort</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>rating</td>
        <td>The user's rating of the song or piece, from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).</td>
        <td>8</td>
        <td>xs:positiveInteger</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>source</td>
        <td>The collection (e.g., album) or other source (e.g., a band website that hosts streams or audio files)</td>
        <td>Yessongs</td>
        <td>xs:string</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>title</td>
        <td>The title of the song or piece</td>
        <td>Heart of the Sunrise</td>
        <td>xs:string</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>track</td>
        <td>A unique identifier for the tune; e.g., the track number within a collection or the specific URI for the object (e.g., a stream or audio file)</td>
        <td>3</td>
        <td>xs:string</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>uri</td>

    <p>NOTE: The datatypes specified above are defined in &w3xmlschema2;.</p>

  <section2 topic='Transport Mechanism' anchor='protocol-transport'>
    <p>Tune information SHOULD be communicated and transported by means of the &xep0060; subset specified in &xep0163;. Because tune information is not pure presence information and can change independently of the user's availability, it SHOULD NOT be provided as an extension to &PRESENCE;.</p>

<section1 topic='Implementation Notes' anchor='impl'>
  <p>To prevent a large number of updates when a user is skipping through tracks, an implementation SHOULD wait several seconds before publishing new tune information.</p>
  <p>If the length is unknown (e.g., the user is listening to a stream), the &lt;length/&gt; element SHOULD NOT be included.</p>
  <p>A typical interface for user ratings is to show one to five star icons such as &#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;. If this interface is used, the numbers 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 should be mapped to one, two, three, four, and five stars respectively, and odd numbers should be mapped to half stars (e.g., the number 9 would be mapped to four-and-a-half stars).</p>
