<remark><p>Defined file description format separate from XEP-0096; modified the checksum format to reuse the &lt;hashes/&gt; element from XEP-0300; removed the 'urn:xmpp:jingle:apps:file-transfer:info:2' namespace by putting all elements into the 'urn:xmpp:jingle:apps:file-transfer:3' namespace; incremented namespace version from 2 to 3.</p></remark>

<p>To overcome these drawbacks, this specification defines a file transfer negotiation method that meets the following requirements:</p>
<ul>
<li>Use the session negotiation semantics from <cite>XEP-0166</cite>.</li>
<li>Use the file description format from <cite>XEP-0096</cite>.</li>
<li>Use &xep0260; and &xep0261;.</li>
<li>Define a file description format that enables hash agility (unlike <cite>XEP-0096</cite>).</li>
<li>Define a clear upgrade path from SI File Transfer to Jingle File Transfer.</li>
</ul>
<p>Jingle file transfer is only as reliable as the transports on which it depends. In particular, SOCKS5 Bytestreams ("S5B") does not always result in NAT or firewall traversal. To work around that problem, this specification requires all implementations to support as a fallback mechanism In-Band Bytestreams ("IBB"), which usually results in a successful (if slow) file transfer.</p>

<p>First, the party that wishes to initiate the file transfer determines the responder's capabilities (via &xep0030; or &xep0115;). Here we assume that the responder supports the following service discovery features:</p>
<ul>
<li>urn:xmpp:jingle:1 as described in <cite>XEP-0166</cite></li>
<li>urn:xmpp:jingle:apps:file-transfer:2 as defined in this document &NSVER;</li>
<li>urn:xmpp:jingle:apps:file-transfer:3 as defined in this document &NSVER;</li>
<li>urn:xmpp:jingle:transports:s5b:1 as defined in <cite>XEP-0260</cite></li>
<li>urn:xmpp:jingle:transports:ibb:1 as defined in <cite>XEP-0261</cite></li>
</ul>
<p>The initiator then sends a Jingle session-initiation request to a potential responder. The content-type of the request specifies two things:</p>
<ol>
<li>An application type of "urn:xmpp:jingle:apps:file-transfer:2". In particular, the &lt;description/&gt; element contains an &lt;offer/&gt; element or a &lt;request/&gt; element that in turn contains one or more &lt;file/&gt; elements qualified by the existing 'http://jabber.org/protocol/si/profile/file-transfer' namespace from <cite>XEP-0096</cite>.</li>
<li>An application type of "urn:xmpp:jingle:apps:file-transfer:3". In particular, the &lt;description/&gt; element contains an &lt;offer/&gt; element or a &lt;request/&gt; element that in turn contains one or more &lt;file/&gt; elements defining a file to be sent.</li>
<li>An appropriate transport method. So far the suggested methods are jingle-s5b (<cite>XEP-0260</cite>) and, as a fallback, jingle-ibb (<cite>XEP-0261</cite>).</li>
</ol>
<p>Note: All attributes of the &lt;file/&gt; element are defined in <cite>XEP-0096</cite>, not in this specification.</p>

<p>At any time during the lifetime of the file transfer session, the hosting entity (i.e., the entity where the file resides) can communicate the hash of the file to the receiving entity. This is done by sending a session-info message containing a &lt;hash/&gt; element qualified by the 'urn:xmpp:jingle:apps:file-transfer:info:2' namespace. The XML character data of this &lt;hash/&gt; element has the same meaning as the 'hash' attribute of the &lt;file/&gt; element qualified by the 'http://jabber.org/protocol/si/profile/file-transfer' namespace from <cite>XEP-0096</cite>; that is, it is a checksum of the file contents produced in accordance with the hashing function specified by the 'algo' attribute, which MUST be one of the functions listed in the &ianahashes;. For historical reasons and for backward-compatibility with <cite>XEP-0096</cite>, the 'algo' attribute defaults to a value of "md5".</p>
