Noteable XEPs:
Conversations makes it very easy to create an account on the conversations.im
server. Using that server comes with an annual fee of 8 Euro after a 6 month
trial period. However Conversations will work with any other XMPP server as
well. A lot of XMPP servers are run by volunteers and are free of charge.
* XEP-0065: SOCKS5 Bytestreams
* XEP-0163: Personal Eventing Protocol
* XEP-0191: Blocking Command
* XEP-0198: Stream Management
* XEP-0237: Roster Versioning
* XEP-0280: Message Carbons
* XEP-0313: Message Archive Management
* XEP-0352: Client State Indication
* XEP-0363: HTTP File Upload
XMPP Features:
Conversations works with every XMPP server out there. However XMPP is an
extensible protocol. These extensions are standardized as well in so called
XEP’s. Conversations supports a couple of those to make the overall user
experience better. There is a chance that your current XMPP server does not
support these extensions. Therefore to get the most out of Conversations you
should consider either switching to an XMPP server that does or - even better -
run your own XMPP server for you and your friends.
These XEPs are - as of now:
* XEP-0065: SOCKS5 Bytestreams (or mod_proxy65). Will be used to transfer files if both parties are behind a firewall (NAT).
* XEP-0163: Personal Eventing Protocol for avatars
* XEP-0191: Blocking command lets you blacklist spammers or block contacts without removing them from your roster.
* XEP-0198: Stream Management allows XMPP to survive small network outages and changes of the underlying TCP connection.
* XEP-0280: Message Carbons which automatically syncs the messages you send to your desktop client and thus allows you to switch seamlessly from your mobile client to your desktop client and back within one conversation.
* XEP-0237: Roster Versioning mainly to save bandwidth on poor mobile connections
* XEP-0313: Message Archive Management synchronize message history with the server. Catch up with messages that were sent while Conversations was offline.
* XEP-0352: Client State Indication lets the server know whether or not Conversations is in the background. Allows the server to save bandwidth by withholding unimportant packages.
* XEP-0363: HTTP File Upload allows you to share files in conferences and with offline contacts. Requires an additional component on your server.
