Is there a link to this I can’t find?
All the documentation is really scattered (partially due to the interwoven nature of having a stack of different protocols/services).
necessary for outbound telephone calls (to landline/mobile phone network)?
… or, put another way:
- are there any XMPP clients one is aware of which can NOT do so?
More generally, Is there a list of What XMPP extensions are used by JMPchat (and for which purposes)?
Any client that can do voice calls will work with JMP.chat. As a user generally it’s not useful to think about XMPP or protocol extensions, this is an implementation detail if you’re building a library or SDK. We consider Cheogram Android to be a first-party app and all Snikket branded apps to be pretty close, everything else is a third-party app with the uncertainty that entails, but basic functions like text messages and calls are standard enough to pretty much always work.
Thanks so much! Sorry for the dead reply.
TL: DR; I’m gonna take a shot in the dark here, and guess that, for experienced XMPP client/server devs, the answer to my question is the sort of thing that one picks up by becoming familiar with the XMPP specs and extensions…
Q: Is that an accurate assumption?
I hear you that for the vast majority of users, or users in general, this probably isn’t helpful.
In my case, I’m also a professional IT nerd — done plenty of paid (mostly corporate) work on projects, architecture design, bugs/changes/QA, planning.
Follow up: is there a place where any of it* is being tracked or documented, either now, or in the past?
- (specific issues caused by lack of using/integrating a particular XMPP extension — either in an XMPP server, or in an XMPP client).
I did find a list of extensions and clients, but it would be nice to see particular (undesired) behavior tied to particular XMPP extension’s lack of support/integration. I.e., bug reports/QA testing
Could also be expected, predictable behavior, without necessarily having to do actual testing.…
