Jingle File Transfer
SIP Communicator currently supports File Transfer with a number of protocols such as MSN, AIM/ICQ, Yahoo! Messenger, and XMPP. The thing is that our XMPP implementation of this feature uses the SI File Transfer extension (XEP).
The XMPP foundation are currently working on a newer, better, and cooler way of transferring files … and we want it! :) This new file transfer XEP is called Jingle File Transfer. This project is about implementing it. Interested? We hope you are, cause that’s one cool project!
