Brian Cully on XMPP Takes AIM: A Lot of Jabber about Real Time Applications

6:45 pm, Suspenders Restaurant

XMPP Without IM

This will be an open-ended Q&A-style talk covering XMPP fundamentals. 
XML streams, stanza semantics, federation, and extensibility will all be 
touched on. The purpose will be to cover what makes XMPP different from 
existing IM solutions and viable as a generic push technology. Come with 
questions!

bio:

Brian has been involved in the XMPP community since 2007, writing code 
for ejabberd and prosody to support various extensions, with a 
particular focus on publish-subscribe functionality. He is currently 
working on integrating XMPP with Junction Networks` SIP service, 
facilitating call control and monitoring in real-time on the web.
