Day 2 of the Hackathon went great. Marvin (@larma) helped me implement an opt-in feature in #Conversations_im which routes all P2P sessions (calls and files transfers) via the users home server (similar to the feature found in Signal).
I went on a nice walk to a viewpoint on Mount Royal afterwards.
Now looking forward to Day 1 of #IETF124.
The HTTP QUERY Method
This specification defines the QUERY method for HTTP. A QUERY requests that the request target process the enclosed content in a safe/idempotent manner and then respond with the result of that processing.greenbytes.de
The EU is mandating messaging apps be compatible with each other, but the current plan is looking less like #federation and more like "register your chat app with Meta, send them all your data, and link with their prescribed APIs that they may decide to change any day"
At the risk of preaching to the converted, here's @guusdk advocating for *real* interoperability between messaging apps, using an existing, battle-tested, #IETF-backed standard: #XMPP!

It’s time for real interoperability. Let’s make it happen!
When I explain to others what I do for a living, I often ask why it is that we are not surprised that one can use a Gmail account to send an email to someone who uses an Outlook account, yet many people fully accept that you can’t send a message to s…Ignite Realtime Community Forums

I somehow just learned about the IETF's "Privacy Pass" working group, along with Google and Apple's respective implementations ("Private State Tokens", "Private Access Tokens"), and I'm so damn tired of DRM being the answer to everything.
Mozilla wrote a blog post in December of 2023 about why they decided not to implement it:

...and the IETF has a page to track the working group's drafts:

Hosted by the #IETF of course

Is it time for a Declarative #HTTP Spec Test Suite within the #IETF?

The proposal suggests it could be based on hurl: hurl.dev/
Hurl - Run and Test HTTP Requests
Hurl, run and test HTTP requests with plain text and curl. Hurl can run fast automated integration tests.hurl.dev
On this day, 15 years ago the http-state working group was created in #IETF. daniel.haxx.se/blog/2009/01/09…
27 months later the cookie RFC 6265 was published: daniel.haxx.se/blog/2011/04/28…
This spec is now being revised. The latest draft is called -13 and lives here: datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/…
Cookies: HTTP State Management Mechanism
This document defines the HTTP Cookie and Set-Cookie header fields. These header fields can be used by HTTP servers to store state (called cookies) at HTTP user agents, letting the servers maintain a stateful session over the mostly stateless HTTP pr…IETF Datatracker
Woohoo! #IETF #RFC9460 has been published: "Service Binding and Parameter Specification via the #DNS (#SVCB and #HTTPS Resource Records)". rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9460.htm…
Thank you to everyone has supported and contributed to this over the past almost nine years since the initial seeds were planted during discussions at a TLS 1.3 interim meeting.
SVCB has potential to have substantial impact across a wide range of Internet protocols. I'm thrilled to see how many drafts are already building on it.
RFC 9460: Service Binding and Parameter Specification via the DNS (SVCB and HTTPS Resource Records)
This document specifies the "SVCB" ("Service Binding") and "HTTPS" DNS resource record (RR) types to facilitate the lookup of information needed to make connections to network services, such as for HTTP origins.www.rfc-editor.org
