What are the incompatibilities of libjingle and XEP-0166 et al?

Question

libjingle\'s developer guide quite vaguely mentions incompatibilities between libjingle\'s implementation of Jingle and XEP-0166\'s specification. It also mentions it is inc

Answer 1

libjingle exists for more than 3 years, and its protocol didn't change much. It was compatible with one of the early versions of XEP-0166... not sure now which one exactly, but I guess it was something around 0.15.

You might have better luck asking at the jdev mailing list.

All versions of this XEP are stored in a version control repository.

Anyway, many implementations use libjingle, so being compatible with libjingle might be more important for you than with XEP.

Answer 2

I've dug out specs for Google Talk's implementation (that is, the "old" libjingle): Google Talk Call Signaling. Compare with: XEP-0166

Not only that, but it appears Google finally updated libjingle to 0.5 to support both GTCS and XEP-0166.

I'll be accepting my own answer; nonetheless, a "thank you" goes to liori!
