The Jabber Software Foundation (JSF) develops extensions to XMPP through a standards process centered around XMPP Extension Protocols (XEPs). The process is managed by the XMPP Extensions Editor and involves intensive discussion on the Standards-JIG mailing list, formal review and voting by the XMPP Council, and modification based on implementation experience and interoperability testing. All documents in the XEP series are available under a liberal IPR Policy for wide implementation. Submissions are welcome (see also the "inbox"). Changes are tracked via a CVS repository (see instructions), old versions are available, and IETF-style XML reference files are provided.
This page lists approved XMPP extensions as well as proposals that are under active consideration. A list of all XEPs (including retracted, rejected, deprecated, and obsolete XEPs) is also available. Good places for developers to start are the basic and intermediate protocol suites.
