as far as i know there is no client implementing this. am i wrong?

[selurvedu]

as far as i know there is no client implementing this

Yes

Here: https://github.com/dino/dino/tree/feature/omemo1

[gkdr]

nice, that means the libsignal-protocol-c fork is functional as well?

[Neustradamus]

@gkdr: First, I can not confirm that current libomemo supports a perfect OMEMO 0.3.0, only you can confirm it.

About OMEMO 0.4.0+, I am not sure that the omemo1 branch of Dino is up-to-date.
It is important to create a new libomemo branch for OMEMO 0.4.0+ or better, I think, a new repo, for example "libomemo-v2" or other...

@mar-v-in: Please talk with @gkdr.

Thanks in advance.

[mar-v-in]

libomemo-c should work, but afaik it was not thoroughly tested with for compatibility any other implementation yet. When operating based on libomemo-c, you can implement omemo 0.3.0 and 0.4.0+ at the same time so that your client remains fully backwards-compatible. This is what is implemented in omemo1 branch, but again, nothing of this was thoroughly tested and you'd be the first client to implement this in production.

[gkdr]

oh, nice, thanks for that! the changes look like i can probably plug it into my signal-protocol-client-code with little adaptations. i can also start implementing the pure xml stuff here, but will think about how to include the forked signal protocol since it's now part of the omemo spec.

[hades]

Is this fixed now (after 6f153c0 and further changes last year)?

[Neustradamus]

@hades: Sorry for the delay, it does not support OMEMO 0.8.3, it is only 0.3.0.

And "XEP-0454: OMEMO Media sharing" is missing too:

• https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0454.html

Maybe some guys can look it?

All links in description.

I think it is time to update the lib with latest XEP-0384 version.

People would like the support of the latest version.

[gkdr]

@Neustradamus I agree the newest version would be nice. As mentioned above, this would require using the omemo-specific crypto in a completely different place than here (as this module only dealt with the XML protocol and left the crypto to a libsignal-protocol-c wrapper). Not sure what the newest versions add beyond that, is there a good implementation guide somewhere?
