Good call, that's yet another axis of communication. I actually had all that written down for a blog post I was going to get around to making (with diagrams & graphics and everything).
Something I'd really like to see if a protocol that is designed for notifications to humans. Anywhere from "Your car is ready to be picked up" to "We charged your credit card for this product, for this month of server", etc, etc.
I think if it is built from the ground up as a notification protocol, we can avoid the crap emails that we filter based on regular expressions, and bulk mail, and recorded phone calls.
But, it'd be really hard to get any sort of traction on of course.
- aaronblohowiak 17y agoI am not sure what you'd want from the notification protocol that persisted XMPP doesn't offer already.
- cschneid 17y agoI'm not sure, it's a random idea based on the idea that most personal communication protocols tend toward being used as notification protocols. XMPP might be the answer, or maybe dialects on top of XMPP. (haven't looked too close to see what's possible).
- aaronblohowiak 17y agoplease email me, i have a couple ideas i want you and/or somebody to implement regarding notifications ;) aaron.blohowiak@gmail.com

- rcoder 17y agoVoila! I give you XMPP + threading: http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0201.html http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0201.html (last updated Feb. of last year) Wave is XMPP, with additional Google extensions for a variety of collaboration features. That is possible because the first letter in XMPP doesn't stand for "XML", it's the (annoying but common) "eXtensible", suggesting that domain-specific additions are not only accepted, they are encouraged.
- papaf 17y agoI was just looking at the protocol specification. Its still very much a draft but it is based on XMPP.
