Peter Saint-Andre talks about making Jabber more Secure:

  1. Get all the Jabberd’s using SASL and TLS (as per RFC)

  2. I think plumpy’s jabberd already does this.
  3. Get XMPP addresses into standard certificates.
  4. Set up a Cert authority

  5. 2 and 3 are… well.. I don’t know. I think cert authorities are dumb. Can’t we do a web of trust instead of a tree?
  6. Start with s2s, then do s2c.
Aren’t we pretty much all the way there on s2c? I think s2s is the last remaining challenge.
