Why is the OMEMO protocol still "experimental?"

OMEMO Encryption
This specification defines a protocol for end-to-end encryption in one-to-one chats, as well as group chats where each participant may have multiple clients per account.Marvin Wißfeld

in reply to 2something • • •As someone familiar with the XMPP Standards Foundation, I can explain this one 🙂
The answer is rather simple... it's not "finished" yet.
Most clients are on an earlier version of the XEP (0.3.x).
The crypto is 99% the same, but some other things were changed to make the protocol better, more efficient, etc. We need more implementations of the latest version before it can be moved on to "Stable", which is the next stage for XEPs.
