User Activity

With User Activity I don't mean my own activity (low) but the XEP-0108. This is one in a line of XEP's that relies on the PEP XEP. Since it relies on PEP it is normally an easy task to implement the client side of it. Now in Coccinella cvs.

A closer look at the User Activity XEP makes me think of the design was a good one. While the normal presence type/show say something about how present I am, the activity values say what you do. This is much more specific than how long time you have been away, and the number of possibilities huge. The XEP captures only a fraction of these and is furthermore a bit cultural biased. It also makes assumptions like that reading is relaxing, although the specific tag (reading) may be put under any general category.

It also makes assumptions like that reading is relaxing, although the specific tag (reading) may be put under any general category.

Indeed, that's a bit funny. Other example: I think many people agree with me that shopping in most cases is not relaxing ;-)
