Hey CJ.
I don't think that graph will ever be readable without vendor-specific hacks applied for every piece of software participating. AS will meet the same fate as XMPP. Some very core features might work, but the diversity in user agents and servers and their quirky implementations will ultimately be to its detriment. Maybe that's leftover pessimism from the time I participated in the XMPP WG. I'd love to be wrong.
I have a lot of respect for implementing AS in Go. I tried and didn't even finish my relay implementation. It was just too counter to the Go core competency and mindset. Or I'm just not a fan of wrangling interface{}s around.
- cjslep 7y agoHey! I totally understand the pessimism. I am untainted by XMPP for better or worse. I started typing out a reply on my phone but I think I need to sit with a keyboard and just make a blog post on it -- I hope you don't mind a wait. I hope I'll do a fair job characterizing the problems you identity and give them my alternate outlook.
